Klashxx's result is correct. However, a more efficient way of calculating the result would be:
Code:
awk -v n=100 'BEGIN {while ((j=++i^2) <= n) print j}'

Smilie

If you think about the problem (forget about the code, just think about the math), every single time that a lamp's id number is divisible by a number x, there will be another number, y, less than or equal to the number of lamps, by which it will also be divisible. So, for each x that toggles the lamp's state, there is a y which will undo its effect ... except when x=y, a square root.

Alister
