Haven't watched the whole video, but at the end the answer seems to be "Any number greater than 5, and 2" ? Isn't this wrong ? 4 is just 4*(2x2) squares (and for a rectangle of size (l, 2*l), you can easily tile any square that has factor l and 2*l, so since 1 and 2 both divides 4, it's rather easy)? Cute problem otherwise !
Whenever I procrastinate.... These are the videos(+ admission vids, life at uni, etc) I watch to get on with my work
frustrated she didn’t ask the question which was on my mind: is there any way to count the number of tilings with N rectangles?

It isn't possible to divide a square into rectangles with a width:length ratio of 1:2. Perhaps you misunderstood what they are asking?
n = 2i^2, where i = 1 to infinity. Did I get it wrong
Oh this is what I got too!
