// TODO: This should be equivalent to (u32)sqrt((double)n), and in practice
// that seems to be true for all input, so do we actually need this integer-only
// implementation? i.e. are there any platforms / compiler settings where
// sqrt(double) won't give the correct answer? and is sqrt(double) faster?
