Default Square root with a remainder


::Hi all, I'm looking for a little help here with sqrt in excel.

I know that sqrt function returns a decimal as an answer, but I'm
looking for something slight different. Is there a way to make the
fucntion return an integer, with a remainder?

For example,
D = Q^2 + R
1 = 1 + 0
2 = 1 + 1
3 = 1 + 2
4 = 2 + 0

and so on

So let's say I give the function a 5, I'm expecting a 2 for Q and 1 for
remainder.::
