0069. Sqrt(x).js

// Implement int sqrt(int x).
//
// Compute and return the square root of x, where x is guaranteed to be a non-negative integer.
//
// Since the return type is an integer, the decimal digits are truncated and only the integer part of the result is returned.
//
// Example 1:
//
// Input: 4
// Output: 2
//
// Example 2:
//
// Input: 8
// Output: 2
// Explanation: The square root of 8 is 2.82842..., and since
// the decimal part is truncated, 2 is returned.
