COMMENTS

Also: Number of cuboids of side lengths not exceeding n such that the shortest path over the surface from one vertex to the opposite one is integral (cf. link to Project Euler).

Also: partial sums of A143714, i.e., number of triples (a,b,c), 1 <= a <= b <= c <= n, such that (a+b)^2+c^2 is a square.

FORMULA

a(n) = sum( A143714(i), i=1..n ).

EXAMPLE

We have a(4) = a(5) = 3, corresponding to the cuboids of size 3 x 3 x 1, 3 x 2 x 2 and 4 x 2 x 1, i.e. to A143714(3)=2 and A143714(4)=1. No other cuboids with side lengths not exceeding 5 have the property that (a+b)^2+c^2 is a square. See A143714 for more details.

PROG

(PARI) A143715(M)=sum(a=1, M, sum(b=a, M, sum(c=b, M, issquare((a+b)^2+c^2))))

/* or: */ s=0; A143715=vector(100, i, s+=A143714[i])
