given a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a,b,c are integers

can you construct A^2 + B^2 = 2c^2 and state A, B

A=B=0

But I get the impression that's not what you had in mind?

I forgot to exclude a=b=0 in the problem statement
although we normally allowed that option as a first try

But there is another solution with a, b, A, B != 0


Why is this cross posted to alt.binaries.*.* ?

Because the OP is a cross posting clueless *MORON*.

Since it isn't archived, OT matters less there IMO.
