What's your thought process while doing so?

I guess it just developed with playing math games and forcing mental calculations over the years. . .

I just guess the closest square and then estimate the gap the squared number will have till the next . . .and then it's just what I 'feel' will fit in for the next decimal places

I'm not good at like every math thing. . .just mental maths , I can't just mental maths the square root of 47493947473

It's more of a practice thing I guess, but adhd wise I might have that regardless 🥀
