%N Decimal expansion of -log(2-2*cos(1))/2.

%C From _Bernard Schott_, Apr 20 2021: (Start)

%C The series Sum_{k>=1} cos(k)/k and also Sum_{k>=1} sin(k)/k (A096444) are called Fresnel series.

%C Abel summation shows these two series are convergent.

%C The series Sum_{k>=1} |cos(k)/k| is divergent. (End)
