Squared halves (Posted on 2016-06-10) Difficulty: 4 of 5
8833 = 88^2 + 33^2
As you see, the above number is equal to the sum of the squares of its two halves.

Provide all numbers below 1,000,000 possessing this feature.

Bonus question: As above, but the numbers should be equal to the sum of the cubes of their thirds, i.e. ABCDEF= (AB)^3+(CD)^3+(EF)^3

BTW, a little tweak to the below program also finds for the squared halves portion 94122353 = 9412^2 + 2353^2.
