%N A279197 Number of self-conjugate inseparable solutions of X + Y = 2Z (integer, disjoint triples from {1,2,3,...,3n}).
%C A279197 In Richard Guy's letter, the term 50 is marked with a question mark. _Peter Kagey_ has shown that the value should be 55. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Feb 15 2017
%C A279197 From _Peter Kagey_, Feb 14 2017: (Start)
%C A279197 An inseparable solution is one in which "there is no j such that the first j of the triples are a partition of 1, ..., 3j" (See A202705.)
%C A279197 A self-conjugate solution is one in which for every triple (a, b, c) in the partition there exists a "conjugate" triple (m-a, m-b, m-c) or (m-b, m-a, m-c) where m = 3n+1.
