+# Difference Of Squares
+
+Welcome to Difference Of Squares on Exercism's Gleam Track.
+If you need help running the tests or submitting your code, check out `HELP.md`.
+
+## Instructions
+
+Find the difference between the square of the sum and the sum of the squares of the first N natural numbers.
+
+The square of the sum of the first ten natural numbers is
+(1 + 2 + ... + 10)² = 55² = 3025.
+
+The sum of the squares of the first ten natural numbers is
+1² + 2² + ... + 10² = 385.
+
+Hence the difference between the square of the sum of the first ten natural numbers and the sum of the squares of the first ten natural numbers is 3025 - 385 = 2640.
+
+You are not expected to discover an efficient solution to this yourself from first principles; research is allowed, indeed, encouraged.
+Finding the best algorithm for the problem is a key skill in software engineering.
