Kaprekar Number

Kaprekar number is one of the amazing concepts in Mathematics. The square of a number when divided into parts and none of the parts is equal to 0, and sum of both the parts forms the original number, then that number is a Kaprekar number . Let's understand this concept in detail: Checking a Kaprekar Number Following are the steps to check whether any number is a Kaprekar number or not: Step 1 : Consider any number N (must be greater than 0). Step 2 : Square the number N (N x N). Step 3 : Divide the resultant obtained in Step 2 into two parts (left and right). Possible scenarios that occur when dividing the resultant into two parts: Scenario 1 : If the resultant obtained in Step 2 is a single digit number If the resultant obtained in Step 2 is a single digit number (no matter even or odd), compare it with the number considered in Step 1.  If the number in Step 2 is equal to the number in Step 1, it is a Kaprekar number. But if the number  in Step 2 is not equal to the...
