The function squares takes two arguments, a and b. It will first create a variable called count and set it to 0. It will then keep track of how many times the function has been called by counting from 1 up to but not including the value of b. If the value of i is equal to the value of b, then the function will return immediately. If the value of i is greater than the value of b, then the function will add 1 to i and continue counting from 1 up to but not including the value of b. When the value of i reaches the value of b, the function will return the value of count.
function squares(a, b) {
let count = 0;
let i = 1;
while (i * i <= b) {
if (i * i >= a) {
count++;
}
i++;
}
return count;
}
