you requested three different number and I think that there are not three answer. I am not a math wiz, but I am a computer programmer. I had write a script to generate numbers that after plus equal to after multiple.
The number generated were "0" and "2".
I had try to write the script here but it doesn't allow me to do so. maybe I could try to put it in the comment.

I had try to write the script here but it doesn't allow me. So I write this instead in simple and understandable structure.
var i equal -1000
while loop (condition (var i less than 1000)
(
if condition(var i plus var i equal var i multiplied var i
print var i
)
var i + var i or ( plus plus )
)
)
