You are not supposed to ask a question, but GIVE your most
interesting number. Your number 4 may be interesting, but
certainly can't be the "most interesting" don't you think?
2^2 = 2*2 = 2 + 2 ?
what ELSE can he mean when he says (correcting for the typo "it's")
What number is a square and also the sum of it's square roots ?
If he is thinking of 4, then he means:
2^2 = 2 + -2
Square roots, plural, are a set, and not restricted by
any branch-cut arbitrariness of C->C functions.
