Double Squares
A double-square number is an integer X which can be expressed as the
sum of two perfect squares. For example, 10 is a double-square because
10 = 32 + 12. Your task in this problem is, given X, determine the
number of ways in which it can be written as the sum of two squares.
For example, 10 can only be written as 32 + 12 (we don't count 12 + 32
as being different). On the other hand, 25 can be written as 52 + 02
or as 42 + 32.

Input
You should first read an integer N, the number of test cases. The next
N lines will contain N values of X.
Constraints
0 ≤ X ≤ 2147483647
1 ≤ N ≤ 100
Output
For each value of X, you should output the number of ways to write X
as the sum of two square

Is the code mention below solution to this question ???? what is the
fault...
