Test if a value is a square triangular number.
A square triangular number is an integer value which is both a square number and a triangular number.
Triangular numbers can be computed using the following formula
for n >= 0
.
By analogy with the square root of x
, one can define the positive triangular root of x
such that T_n = x
Accordingly, an integer x
is a triangular number if and only if 8x+1
is a square number.
npm install @stdlib/assert-is-square-triangular-number
var isSquareTriangularNumber = require( '@stdlib/assert-is-square-triangular-number' );
Tests if a value
is a square triangular number.
var Number = require( '@stdlib/number-ctor' );
var bool = isSquareTriangularNumber( 36.0 );
// returns true
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber( new Number( 36.0 ) );
// returns true
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber( 3.14 );
// returns false
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber( -5.0 );
// returns false
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber( NaN );
// returns false
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber( null );
// returns false
Tests if a value
is a primitive square triangular number.
var Number = require( '@stdlib/number-ctor' );
var bool = isSquareTriangularNumber.isPrimitive( 36.0 );
// returns true
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber.isPrimitive( new Number( 36.0 ) );
// returns false
Tests if a value
is a Number
object having a value which is a square triangular number.
var Number = require( '@stdlib/number-ctor' );
var bool = isSquareTriangularNumber.isObject( 36.0 );
// returns false
bool = isSquareTriangularNumber.isObject( new Number( 36.0 ) );
// returns true
