EXAMPLE
|
a(17) = 6 because there are 6 possible solutions to 17^2 - D*y^2 = 1: 17^2 - 2*12^2 = 1, 17^2 - 8*6^2 = 1, 17^2 - 18*4^2 = 1, 17^2 - 32*3^2 = 1, 17^2 - 72*2^2 = 1 and 17^2 - 288*1^2 = 1. D = 18 is the smallest of the 6 D values, where the (17,y) pair is minimal and hence A033314(17) = 18.
