A   taxicab number   (the definition that is being used here)   is a positive integer that can be expressed as the sum of two positive cubes in more than one way.



The first taxicab number is   1729,   which is:

 13   +   123       and also
 93   +   103.


Taxicab numbers are also known as:

   taxi numbers
   taxi-cab numbers
   taxi cab numbers
   Hardy-Ramanujan numbers


Task

 Compute and display the lowest 25 taxicab numbers (in numeric order, and in a human-readable format).
 For each of the taxicab numbers, show the number as well as it's constituent cubes.


Extra credit
 Show the 2,000th taxicab number, and a half dozen more
