Count to one hundred million in squares

Another counting game, but this one adds up in square of the last number posted.
ie.
2x2=4
4x4=16
256
65536
etc.

counting up to 100 000 000 or just over, as the case will be.

Just use your calculator. That's what I did.
The next one is 65536 times by itself (Squared)
which equals:
4294967296

and I see I've just completed my entire thread in two posts Doh!

Just as well I put it in stupid zone. :lol:

Useless fact: It only takes five calculations of square numbers, starting from 2, to get to a number greater than one hundred milliion.
I really should have thought this one through better.
