For <em class="or">13</em> this is possible (2²<em class="or">+3²</em>), but for example, <em class="or">3</em> cannot be written in this way. Pierre de Fermat came up with a theorem on this topic, for which Don Zagier, an American mathematician gave a proof, which astonishingly is just one sentence long.</p><p id="3498" class="pw-post-body-paragraph na nb hd nc b nd ne nf ng nh ni nj nk nl nm nn no np nq nr ns nt nu nv nw nx gw bk">Numberphile <a class="af oq" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_1866745269&feature=iv&src_vid=yGsIw8LHXM8&v=SyJlRUBoVp0" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">[1]</a> <a class="af oq" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGsIw8LHXM8" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">[2]</a> made a great video on the one-sentence proof of Zagier but left out some details.

For example, as already mentioned <em class="or">13</em> is a prime, which can be written as the sum of two squares, namely 2² and 3². Also, 17 is a prime satisfying this rule as we have 17<em class="or">=1²+4²</em>.</p><blockquote class="pv"><p id="e296" class="pw px hd bf py pz qa qb qc qd qe nx du">In general, Fermat was
