All possible pythagorean triples, visualized

The pythagorean triples like (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), etc. all follow a nice pattern which complex numbers expose in a beautiful way. Brought to you by you: http://3b1b.co/triples-thanks Home page: https://www.3blue1brown.com/ And by Remix: https://www.remix.com/jobs

Regarding the brief reference to Fermat's Last Theorem, what should be emphasized is that it refers to positive integers. You can of course have things like 0^3 + 2^3 = 2^3, or (-3)^3 + 3^3 = 0^3.
