Re: complete square.
You have 2 x^2's.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: complete square.
Hi jacks
3 is the only one in the first 100 000 positive integers. If we allow non-negative integers as well, there are also 0 and 1. Those are the only ones I can find, and I'd say the only ones that are the solutions.

Hi jacks
My post above still applies. I don't have a way to prove that are the only answers...
