%F c = sqrt(e*Pi/2)*erf(1/sqrt(2)), or 2^(-1/2)*exp(1/2)*sqrt(Pi)*(1 - erfc(1/sqrt(2)). - _Michael Kleber_, Mar 21 2001

%F From _Peter Bala_, Feb 09 2024: (Start)

%F Generalized continued fraction expansion:

%F c = 1/(1 - 1/(4 - 3/(6 - 5/(8 - 7/(10 - 9/(12 - ... )))))). See A286286.

%F c/(1 + c) = Sum_{n >= 0} (2*n-1)!!/(A112293(n) * A112293(n+1)) = 1/(1*2) + 1/(2*7) + 3/(7*36) + 15/(36*253) + 105/(253*2278) + ... = 0.5851803411..., a rapidly converging series. (End)

%F Equals Sum_{n >= 0} ((n - 1)*(n + 1)!*2^(n + 1))/(2*n)!. - _Antonio Graciá Llorente_, Feb 13 2024
