Indexed by A060464.
Only primitive solutions where gcd(x,y,z) does not divide n are considered.
From the solution A060464(24) = 30 = -283059965^3 - 2218888517^3 + 2220422932^3 (smallest possible magnitudes according to A. Bogomolny), one has a(24) = 2220422932. A solution to A060464(25) = 33 remains to be found. Other values for larger n can be found in the last column of the table on Hisanori Mishima's web page. - M. F. Hasler, Nov 10 2015

EXAMPLE
For n = 16 the smallest solution is 16 = (-511)^3 + (-1609)^3 + 1626^3, which gives the term 1626.
