This paper introduces a simple and straight-forward approach to
determine for a given natural number 
whether 
Unlike earlier solutions, our approach does no
longer rely on the knowledge of the prime factorization of 
If we just consider the value of the two last
digits and the sum of digits of 
we are able to identify correctly more than 50%
of all natural numbers, whose n-th roots are irrational
number theory, n-th roots of natural numbers, irrational n-th roots: simple tests.
