Pythagorean triple ($x^2+y^2=z^2$)

A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers satisfying $x^2+y^2=z^2$. It is primitive when their greatest common divisor is one. Reducing their square numbers modulo $3$ shows that at least one leg is divisible by $3$; reducing modulo $4$ shows that both legs cannot be odd.
