Primitive Pythagorean triples (PPTs) can be ordered, as shown here by assigning a unique integer to each instance. In practice, this allows a collection of PPTs to be generated and selected by a slider. Use the "set" control in conjunction with the "value" slider to jump to points in the ordering corresponding to a PPT with the first coordinate
x
, second coordinate
y
, or ID number in base 3 equal to the selected value in base 10.
