As I noted a while back:

100 decimal equals 64 hexadecimal, which would be a square if
it was decimal. 100 decimal also equals 144 octal, which would
also be a square if it was decimal. Probably 100 has other
fun properties, but that's one that I noticed.

This is the first IETF since IETF 4 to have this property. The
next IETFs to have this property will be IETF 256 and IETF 289.
After that, you'll have to wait a very long time.

I have Python code if you would like more details...

Regards
   Brian
