Pythagor

Hey People! This program gives you all Pythagorean triplets in a given range.( Eg. ( 3,4,5) - 3^2+4^2 = 5^2 ). I've used a pointer to allocate memory to hold the squares of all numbers in the range. The program uses a function to search for element in the array.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <math.h>

int SQR( int num ){ return num*num; }
int Found( int , int*, int );

int main()
{
	int upperlim,lowerlim,range,i,j,sum,count=0;
	int *squares;

	printf("Enter lower limit:");scanf("%d",&lowerlim );
	printf("Enter upper limit:");scanf("%d",&upperlim );
	range = upperlim - lowerlim +1;
	if( range < 1 )
	{
		printf("Range too low");
		goto exit;
	}

	squares = (int*) malloc( sizeof(int)*range);

	if( ! squares )
	{
		exit("Not enough memory!");
		goto exit;
	}

	for( i=0; i<=range-1; i++ )
	{
		squares[i] = SQR(lowerlim+i);
	}

	for( i=lowerlim; i<=upperlim; i++ )
	{
		for( j=lowerlim; j<=upperlim; j++ )
		{
			sum = SQR(i) + SQR(j);
			if( Found( sum, squares, range ))
			{
				printf("\n(%d %d %0.0f)",i,j,sqrt(sum));
				count++;
			}
		}
	}
	printf("\n%d triplets found",count );
 exit:
	getch();
    return 0;
}

int Found( int num, int* a, int range )	// Carry out linear search
{										// for a given number in array
	int i;
	for( i=0; i<=range-1; i++ )
	{
		if( a[i] == num )
			return 1;
	}

 	return 0;
}
