A Pythagorean triple is three positive integers a, b, and c, such that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. A well known Pythagorean triplet is (3,4,5). If (a, b, c) is a Pythagorean triplet, then so is (ka, kb, kc) for any positive integer k.

A "Pythagorean Triple" is a set of positive integers, a, b and c that fits the rule: a2 + b2 = c2. Example: The smallest Pythagorean Triple is 3, 4 and 5
