COMMENTS
The values X and Y are used in finding A368416.
The number of terms for a given k is 2^(f-1), where f = A119704(2*k) is the number of prime factors of 10^(2*k) + 1.

EXAMPLE
10 is a term since X = 10, Y = 1, k = 1 and 10^2 + 1^2 = 101.
76 is a term since X = 76, Y = 65, k = 2 and 76^2 + 65^2 = 10001.
980 is a term since X = 980, Y = 199, k = 3 and 980^2 + 199^2 = 1000001.
