A square pyramidal number is a figurate number that represents the total number of stacked squares in a pyramid with a square base. The \(n\)-th square pyramidal number counts the number of squares in a pyramid that has \(n\) layers, where the bottom layer is \(n \times n\) and each layer above decreases by 1 in both dimensions until the top layer, which is \(1 \times 1\).
