25. First Missing Positive Integer Variants

A Pythagorean triplet is a set of three natural numbers, x < y < z, for which,
x² + y² = z²
For example, 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25 = 5².
There exists exactly one Pythagorean triplet for which x +y + z = 1000.
Write a C program to find the product of xyz.

C Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
  int x, y;

  for (x = 1; x <= 333; x++) {
    for (y = x; y <= 666; y++) {
      int z = (1000 - x - y);
      if (x*x + y*y == z*z) {
      	printf("Numbers are: %d, %d, %d ", x, y, z);
        printf("\nProduct of x, y, z is : %d", x * y * z);
      }
    }
  }
  return 0;
}

Sample Output:

Numbers are: 200, 375, 425 
Product of x, y, z is : 31875000
