O'Halloran numbers is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

For this task, for our purposes, a regular integer cuboid is a 3 dimensional rectangular object, with six faces, where all angles are right angles, where opposite faces of the cuboid are equal, and where each dimension is a positive integer unit length. It will subsequently be referred to simply as a cuboid; but be aware that it references the above definition.

The surface area of a cuboid is two times the length times the width, plus two times the length times the height, plus two times the width times the height. A cuboid will always have an even integer surface area. The minimum surface area a cuboid may have is 6; one where the l, w, and h measurements are all 1.

   2 × ( l × w + w × h + h × l )
   2 × ( 1 × 1 + 1 × 1 + 1 × 1 ) = 6

Different cuboid configurations (may) yield different surface areas, but the surface area is always an integer and is always even.

A cuboid with l = 2, w = 1 h = 1 has a surface area of 10

   2 × ( 2 × 1 + 1 × 1 + 1 × 2 ) = 10

There is no configuration which will yield a surface area of 8.

There are 16 known even integer values below 1000 which can not be a surface area for any integer cuboid. It is conjectured, though not rigorously proved, that no others exist.


Task
  • Find and display the even integer values that can not be the surface area of a regular, integer, rectangular, cuboid, larger than 6 (the minimum) and less than 1000.

Here, we use combinations with repetitions to generate the various cuboid side lengths. Then we multiply all three pairs of these side length combinations and sum the pairs. Then we remove these sums from the sequence 3..500, and finally we multiply the remaining 16 values by 2.
