hi

i have tried Maple help but could not find any answers.

would appreciate some help on how to construct an algorithm for a Pell's equation with D = 29 (x^2 - D*y^2 = 1)

That is x^2 - 29*y^2 = 1.

i know that there is an infinite number of solutions, but would appreciate the first 5.

(x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2), ... , (x_5, y_5)

many thanx,

antonio
