Formula

log(11) = 2*Sum_{n >= 1} 1/(n*P(n, 6/5)*P(n-1, 6/5)), where P(n, x) denotes the n-th Legendre polynomial. The first 20 terms of the series gives the approximation log(11) = 2.3978952727(47...), correct to 10 decimal places. - Peter Bala, Mar 19 2024

Equals 2*(log 2+log 5 -log 3)+Sum_{k>=1} (-1)^k/(k*100^k). - R. J. Mathar, Jun 10 2024
