Am I cheating? When I taught Geometry, I used to teach my kids that this was the only requirement for a (planar) triangle. I feel like I should be teaching the machine to check for isosceles, equilateral, etc., but if all we want is to determine if a triangle is valid...

triangle_validity
def valid_triangle?(a, b, c)
(a + b > c) && (a + c > b) && (b + c > a)
