The Hardy-Ramanujan numbers (taxi-cab numbers or taxicab numbers) are the smallest positive integers that are the sum of 2 cubes of positive integers in ways (the Hardy-Ramanujan number, i.e. the original taxi-cab number or taxicab number) being the smallest positive integer that is the sum of 2 cubes of positive integers in 2 ways).

Examples

Ramanujan n-way solutions

Ramanujan n-way solutions are positive integers that are the sum of 2 cubes of positive integers in n ways. (Primitive solutions share no common factors greater than 1.) One might distinguish between

• at least n-way solutions,
• exactly n-way solutions (at least n-way, but not at least (n + 1)-way solutions).
