Problem 9 - Special Pythagorean Triplet

A Pythagorean triplet is a set of three natural numbers, a < b < c, for which,
a2 + b2 = c2
For example, 32 + 42 = 9 + 16 = 25 = 52.
There exists exactly one Pythagorean triplet for which a + b + c = 1000.
Find the product abc.

for a in range(1,334):
 for b in range(a,1000):
  if a**2 + b**2 == (1000-a-b)**2:
   print a,b,1000-a-b,a*b*(1000-a-b)
