|
Special Pythagorean triplet
|
|
|
|
A Pythagorean triplet is a set of three natural numbers, a < b < c, for which,
|
|
|
|
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
|
|
|
|
For example, 3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25 = 5^2.
|
|
|
|
There exists exactly one Pythagorean triplet for which a + b + c = 1000.
|
|
Find the product a*b*c.
