%N Location (x,y) of the first n x n square of composite Gaussian integers in the first quadrant.

%C The location of the bottom-left corner of the square is given. We choose the x-coordinate to be as small as possible. The x-coordinate can be negative if the n x n square is centered on the y-axis, as is the case for n = 5 and n = 13. The square is on the line y = x when n = 1, 2, 12, and 14. The Mathematica program prints the minimum (x,y) point and its squared distance from the origin.
