%N Number of cubic equations ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = 0 with integer coefficients |a|,|b|,|c|,|d| <= n, a <> 0, having one real root and two conjugate complex roots.

%C Clearly each term is even as ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = 0 and -ax^3 - bx^2 - cx - d = 0 have the same roots.

%C The variable D in the PARI program below is the discriminant of the reduced form y^3 + py + q = 0.
