%C From _Andrew Howroyd_, Mar 14 2023: (Start)

%C The following information was extracted from the Derive script and notes.

%C The values of x and y are not required to be integers or even real numbers.

%C Eliminating x and y from the equations gives:

%C a^3 - 3*a*b + 2*c = 0.

%C This is the Diophantine equation that is being solved. For a given b and c there will be three possibly complex roots. It is required to find those values of b and c where all three roots are integers.

%C The values for b are the integers of the form (d^2 + d*e + e^2)/3 where d and e are positive integers and d <= e. This sequence lists these values in order with repetition.

%C The corresponding values for c are d*e*(d+e)/2 given in A108940, and the three values for a are d, e and -(d+e).
