EXAMPLE
| x=[0;4,7,5,5,3,5,7,5,3,7,5,3,5,5,7,5,3,7,5,5,3,5,7,3,5,7,5,3,5,5,7,5,...].
x=0.2416025600065536000000429496729600000000000018446744073709551616000...
Decimal expansion (A078886) consists of large gaps of zeros between strings of digits that form powers of 2; this can be seen by grouping the digits as follows:
x = .2 4 16 0 256 000 65536 000000 4294967296 000000000000 ...
and then recognizing the substrings as powers of 2:
2 = 2^(2^0), 4 = 2^(2^1), 16 = 2^(2^2), 65536 = 2^(2^4),
4294967296 = 2^(2^5), 18446744073709551616 = 2^(2^6), ...
