%N A075777 Minimal surface area of a rectangular solid with volume n and integer
sides.
%C A075777 To find minimum surface area, let s1_0 = [n^(1/3)]. Find largest integer
s1 such that s1 <= s1_0 and s1 | n. Then let s2_0 = [sqrt(n / s1)].
Find largest integer s2 such that s2 <= s2_0 and s2 | (n / s1). Then
s3 = n / (s1 * s2). And minimum surface area a(n) = 2 * (s1 * s2
+ s1 * s3 + s2 * s3).
%e A075777 a(12) = 32 because side lengths of 2, 2 and 3 will give volume 12 and
surface area 32, which is the minimum surface area.
