COMMENTS

Pi = 3/1 + 15/106 + 73/877203 + 1/2195225334 + 2/17599271777 +

3/360950005720 + 7/17348726394920 + ... +

Sum of first 4 terms = 3.14159265347...; where Pi = 3.14159265359... f

FORMULA

Given the convergents of Pi <Pi, A002485(2k)/A002486(2k), k>1, = Q(2k); Pi = 3/1 + SUM_{k..inf.}: (Q(2*(k+1) - Q(2*k))

EXAMPLE

a(2) = 106 since A002485(4)/A002486(4) - A002485(2)/A002486(2) = 333/106 -

3/1 = 15/106
