Kaprekar numbers: numbers k such that k = q + r and k^2 = q*10^m + r, for some m >= 1, q >= 0 and 0 <= r < 10^m. Here q and r must both have the same number of digits.

EXAMPLE
703 is Kaprekar because 703 = 494 + 209, 703^2 = 494209.
11111112^2 = 123456809876544 = (1234568 + 9876544)^2. The two "halves" of the square have the same length here, although it's not m but rather m - 1.
