/**
 * @function squareRootLogarithmic
 * @description
 * Return the square root of 'num' rounded down

 * More info: https://leetcode.com/problems/sqrtx/
 * @param {Number} num Number whose square of root is to be found
 * @returns {Number} Square root
 * @see [BinarySearch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_algorithm)
 * @example
 * const num1 = 4
 * logarithmicSquareRoot(num1) // ====> 2
 * @example
 * const num2 = 8
 * logarithmicSquareRoot(num1) // ====> 2
