Some Thoughts re(2): computer solution.....GO OEIS ! Comment 5 of 5 |
(In reply to re: computer solution.....GO OEIS ! by Ady TZIDON)

It turns out, that if you include values for 'a' which end in zero, such that the reverse of 'a' now has a leading zero (which you ignore), then this has already been in OEIS for a while:  A068536

a      b=reverse(a)  c=sqrt(a^2+b^2)
