How to calculate the square of the number

Remember the multiplication table, if there is no auxiliary computational tools, but there is a need to calculate the square of any number. If this can be done, multiply in the mind or on paper (in a column) you are interested in the number itself. This method of computing nowadays, perhaps, be attributed to the category of intelligent entertainment or gymnastics for the mind, as it is neither the fastest nor the simplest.

Use the search engine Google or Nigma, if computational tools are not in your possession, but have access to the Internet. There is no need something to search for in these search engines - they are calculators. Simply enter a relevant query and get the already calculated result. For example, to know the value of the squared number of 5.47 send to the server a search engine query 5,47*is 5.47, or 5, 47^2, or "5,47 squared" - in each case, the search engine will show you the correct answer (29,9209).
