Code

class SquareToN {

	public static void Main(){
		
		int n = 5;
		System.Console.WriteLine( "Summation of (i^2) from i = 0 to n = {0} is {1}", n, DoSquaring( n ) );
		
	}
	
	public static int DoSquaring( int n ){
	
		int x = 0;
		for( int i = 0; i <= n; i++ )
			x = x + ( i * i );
			
		return x;
	
	}
