FORMULA

a(n) = product(k = 1...ceiling(n/2), (2k)^binomial(n,2k-1)).

EXAMPLE

Pi/2 = (2/1)^(1/2) * (4/3)^(1/4) * (32/27)^(1/8) *

(4096/3645)^(1/16) * ...,

e = (2/1)^(1/1) * (4/3)^(1/2) * (32/27)^(1/3) * (4096/3645)^(1/4) * ... and

e^gamma = (2/1)^(1/2) * (4/3)^(1/3) * (32/27)^(1/4) * (4096/3645)^(1/5) *

....
