%N Edge length of largest square dissectable into up to n squares in Mrs. Perkins's quilt problem.
%C An inverse to A005670.
%C More precisely, a(n) = greatest k such that A005670(k) <= n. - _Peter Munn_, Mar 13 2018
%C It is not clear which terms have been proved to be correct and which are just conjectures. - _Geoffrey H. Morley_, Sep 07 2012; _N. J. A. Sloane_, Jul 06 2017
%C Terms up to and including a(18) have been proved correct by Ed Wynn (2013). - _Stuart E Anderson_, Sep 16 2013
