A binary tree of all Pythagorean triples

This is wonderful! I’d somehow missed the classical enumeration of Pythagorean triples. I learned them as magic numbers. That structure alone is worth the price of admission.

There are Pythagorean triples (a, b, c) for which there do not exist integers m, n with a = m^2 - n^2, b = 2mn, c = m^2 + n^2.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! nit: website isn’t mobile friendly

Wow, this is extremely cool! Only problem, the JS slows my Firefox almost to freezing, is it normal?

You changed the article's title to an incorrect one. The tree of primitive Pythagorean triples is ternary, not binary. Each node has three children.
