Replying to [comment:37 jdemeyer]:
> Small comment: you could make the input type `uint32_t` and use
`uint_fast32_t` for the computation. Then your exceptions will be
platform-independent.
Great. Thanks for the suggestion. Done in the new version and the tests
are updated. I also add a function `is_sum_of_square_pyx` which is much
faster than using `sum_of_squares_pyx` with `try/except`, especially if
the answer is `False`.
