The numbers a1,a2,…,a100a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{100} are a permutation of the numbers 1,2,…,1001,2, \ldots, 100. Let S1=a1S_{1}=a_{1}, S2=a1+a2,…,S100=a1+a2+…+a100S_{2}=a_{1}+a_{2}, \ldots, S_{100}=a_{1}+a_{2}+\ldots+a_{100}. What maximum number of perfect squares can be among the numbers S1,S2,…,S100S_{1}, S_{2}, \ldots, S_{100}?

Original LaTeX notation
The numbers $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{100}$ are a permutation of the numbers $1,2, \ldots, 100$. Let $S_{1}=a_{1}$, $S_{2}=a_{1}+a_{2}, \ldots, S_{100}=a_{1}+a_{2}+\ldots+a_{100}$. What maximum number of perfect squares can be among the numbers $S_{1}, S_{2}, \ldots, S_{100}$?
