[LeetCode] Number of Squareful Arrays

996. Number of Squareful Arrays

An array is squareful if the sum of every pair of adjacent elements is a perfect square.

Given an integer array nums, return the number of permutations of nums that are squareful.

Two permutations perm1 and perm2 are different if there is some index i such that perm1[i] != perm2[i].
