perfect squares
Numbers with integer roots
Perfect squares are numbers that result from multiplying an integer by itself: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, and so on.
The term extends to algebraic expressions: x² + 2x + 1 is a perfect square because it factors to (x + 1)².
In casual use, perfect square sometimes describes something that fits neatly into expected categories.
