A118064 Decimal expansion of the sum of the reciprocals of the palindromic primes (Honaker's constant). 0
1, 3, 2, 4, 0 (list; constant; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)
OFFSET

1,2

COMMENTS

The sum using all palindromic numbers <10^11 is 1.32398... Extrapolating using palindromic primes <10^8 using Wynn's epsilon method gives a value near 1.3240... - Eric Weisstein (eric(AT)weisstein.com), May 14 2006
