COMMENTS
This mapping of the Heronian triple (a,b,c) to an integer is unique and uses Cantor's pairing function K(i,j) = (i+j)(i+j+1)/2+j so that (a,b,c) -> K(K(a,b),c). The table of PHT's used to generate the sequence was obtained from lists generated by Sascha Kurz (see Link). The list contains a triple for every possible PHT with a maximum side length of 10000. The triples are in the form (a,b,c) where a >= b >= c and where a <= 10000.

EXAMPLE
A PHT with sides (a,b,c) = (21,20,13) maps to K(K(21,20),13) = K(881,13) = 400078 = a(15), where Cantor's pairing function K is simply A001477 in its two-argument tabular form A001477(k, n) = n + (k+n)*(k+n+1)/2.
A PHT with sides (a,b,c) = (29,21,20) maps to K(K(29,21),20) = 866606 = a(20). This is a primitive Pythagorean triangle (thus also a primitive Heronian triangle), listed as term a(5)=33 in A277557.
