%N a(n) is the number of primitive solutions to the inverse Pythagorean equation 1/x^2 + 1/y^2 = 1/z^2 such that x <= y and x + y + z <= 10^n.

%F It can be shown that all the primitive solutions are generated from the following parametric form: x = 2*a*b*(a^2+b^2), y = a^4-b^4, z = 2*a*b*(a^2-b^2), where gcd(a, b) = 1 and a + b is odd.

%F Limit_{n -> oo} a(n)/10^(n/2) = (4/Pi^2)*Integral_{x=sqrt(2)-1..1} 1/sqrt(1+4*x-x^4)) ~ 0.1277999513464289283641211182341081978805...
