No it is't.
The square root of 2 = 1.4142135624
The integers consist of the positive natural numbers (1, 2, 3, …), their negatives (â1, â2, â3, ...) and the number zero. A formal way of stating this: the integers are the only integral domain whose positive elements are well-ordered, and which has order preserved under addition. Like the natural numbers, the integers form a countably infinite set. The set of all integers is usually denoted in mathematics by a boldface Z (or blackboard bold, \mathbb{Z}), which stands for Zahlen (German for "data" or "figures").
Hope this helps. Alex

The square root of two is not an integer. Integers are whole numbers only.
