%N Numerators of partial sums of a series used for the series of sqrt(2) + sqrt(3) involving Catalan numbers.

%C The corresponding denominators are A120785(n).

%C The limit of this series is 4*(4-(sqrt(2)+sqrt(3))) = 3.414942518 (maple10, 10 digits).

%C See A121503 for the geometric interpretation of sqrt(2)+sqrt(3) and a Popper reference.
