Scenario
Listen to our story: a boy and his father, a computer programmer, are playing with wooden blocks. They are building a pyramid. Their pyramid is a bit weird, as it is actually a pyramid-shaped wall - it’s flat. The pyramid is stacked according to one simple principle: each lower layer contains one block more than the layer above.
The figure illustrates the rule used by the builders.

while i<blocks+1:
height+=layer
if height>blocks:
print(layer-1)
break
i+=1
layer+=1
