Starting with 1 and spiralling anticlockwise in the following way, a 
square spiral with side length 7 is formed.

It is interesting to note that the odd squares lie along the bottom 
right diagonal, but what is more interesting is that 8 out of the 13 
numbers lying along both diagonals are prime; that is, a ratio of 8/13 = 62%.

If one complete new layer is wrapped around the spiral above, a square spiral
with side length 9 will be formed. If this process is continued, what is the 
side length of the square spiral for which the ratio of primes along both
diagonals first falls below 10%?
