Comment (by knsam):

 OK, so this ticket is really an interface to Sympy code and all the tests
 pass.

 A suggestion that you might want to consider: Pell's equation is in no
 reasonable sense a correct attribution. I would prefer Brahmagupta-Pell
 equation. For historic comments, see A. Weil's book "Number Theory, An
 approach through history from Hammurapi to Legendre" or Whitford's book
 "Pell's equation" for some of the early history.

 Modulo this, positive review.
