In mathematics, a natural number in a given number base is a -Kaprekar number if the representation of its square in that base can be split into two parts, where the second part has digits, that add up to the original number. For example, in base 10, 45 is a 2-Kaprekar number, because 45² = 2025, and 20 + 25 = 45. The numbers are named after D. R. Kaprekar.
