Union of A112398 and A112679.
Let S consist of integers x such that x is a term of a primitive Pythagorean triple (ppt). Consider the equivalence classes induced on S by this relation: x and y are equivalent if some ppt includes both x and y. For each class E, let x(E) be the least number in E. Then (a(n)) is the result of arranging the numbers x(E) in increasing order. The terms of S can be represented as nodes of a disconnected graph whose components match the classes C. For example, the component represented by a(1) = 3 starts with
