#96753 - Pell's method
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Pell's method doesnt need a division but is slower

start with b subtract odd integers until you reach a negative value

b=11

11-1 =10
10-3 =7
7-5 =2
took three steps so approx square root is 3
to get more accurate results scale the remainders and treat in the same way.
