title: 'Problem 86: Cuboid route'
|

## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
A spider, S, sits in one corner of a cuboid room, measuring 6 by 5 by 3, and a fly, F, sits in the opposite corner. By travelling on the surfaces of the room the shortest "straight line" distance from S to F is 10 and the path is shown on the diagram.
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, there are up to three "shortest" path candidates for any given cuboid and the shortest route doesn't always have integer length.
|
|
It can be shown that there are exactly 2060 distinct cuboids, ignoring rotations, with integer dimensions, up to a maximum size of M by M by M, for which the shortest route has integer length when M = 100. This is the least value of M for which the number of solutions first exceeds two thousand; the number of solutions when M = 99 is 1975.
|
|
Find the least value of M such that the number of solutions first exceeds one million.
