%N Decimal expansion of (9+sqrt(97))/4.

%C Decimal expansion of the length/width ratio of a (9/2)-extension rectangle. See A188640 for definitions of shape and r-extension rectangle.

%C A (9/2)-extension rectangle matches the continued fraction [4,1,2,2,9,2,2,1,4,4,1,2,2,9,...] for the shape L/W=(9+sqrt(97))/4. This is analogous to the matching of a golden rectangle to the continued fraction [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,...]. Specifically, for the (9/2)-extension rectangle, 4 squares are removed first, then 1 square, then 2 squares, then 2 squares,..., so that the original rectangle of shape (9+sqrt(97))/4 is partitioned into an infinite collection of squares.
