Lagrange’s four square theorem

Lagrange’s Four Square Theorem states that every natural number can be written as sum of squares of four non negative integers.

For eg. 1 = 0^2 + 0^2 + 0^2 +1^2
Similarly 2 = 0^2 + 0^2 + 1^2 +1^2
Similarly for any 
n\in N, n = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^2 where \ a, b, c, d, \in N \cup \{0\}

The above identity may be derived from Euler’s four square identity: which says we can write a product of 2 numbers (which can be written as sum of 4 squares) as the sum of 4 squares.

    // loops checking the sum of squares
    for (int i = 0; i * i <= a; i++) {
        for (int j = i; j * j <= a; j++) {
            for (int k = j; k * k <= a; k++) {
                for (int l = k; l * l <= a; l++) {
 
                    // if sum of four squares equals
                    // the given no.
                    if (i * i + j * j + k * k + l * l == a) {
 
                        // printing the numbers
                        cout << a << " = " << i << "*" << i
                            << " + " << j << "*" << j << " + ";
                        cout << k << "*" << k << " + "
