question content

You are given a 1-indexed integer array nums of length n.
An element nums[i] of nums is called special if i divides n, i.e. n % i == 0.
Return the sum of the squares of all special elements of nums.
 
Example 1:

Input: nums = [1,2,3,4]
Output: 21
Explanation: There are exactly 3 special elements in nums: nums[1] since 1 divides 4, nums[2] since 2 divides 4, and nums[4] since 4 divides 4. 
Hence, the sum of the squares of all special elements of nums is nums[1] * nums[1] + nums[2] * nums[2] + nums[4] * nums[4] = 1 * 1 + 2 * 2 + 4 * 4 = 21.  

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,7,1,19,18,3]
Output: 63
Explanation: There are exactly 4 special elements in nums: nums[1] since 1 divides 6, nums[2] since 2 divides 6, nums[3] since 3 divides 6, and nums[6] since 6 divides 6. 
Hence, the sum of the squares of all special elements of nums is nums[1] * nums[1] + nums[2] * nums[2] + nums[3] * nums[3] + nums[6] * nums[6] = 2 * 2 + 7 * 7 + 1 * 1 + 3 * 3 = 63. 

 
Constraints:

1 <= nums.length == n <= 50
1 <= nums[i] <= 50
