----
Example of a pattern that "IS" a right triangle: 3,4,5
because 5^2 = 3^2+4^2.
--------------------
Example of a pattern that "IS NOT" a right triangle: 2,2,2
-----
There are 6*6*6 = 216 3-digit patterns when you roll
three dice.
---
You have to count the number of such patterns that
satisfy the Pythagorean requirement for a right triangle.
---
The probability will be that number divided by 216.
