COMMENTS

This constant x has the special property that the continued fraction expansion of 2*x results in the continued fraction expansion of x interleaved with 2's: contfrac(x) = [1;2,1,4,1,2,1,8,1,2,1,4,1,2,1,16,...A006519(n),... ] while contfrac(2*x) = [2;1, 2,2, 2,1, 2,4, 2,1, 2,2, 2,1, 2,8,... 2, A006519(n),...].

The continued fraction of x^2 has large partial quotients (see A100864, A100865) that appear to be doubly exponential.
