%N Denominators of a sequence leading to gamma = A001620.
%C gamma = 1/2 + 1/24 + 1/72 + 19/2880 + 3/800 + 863/362880 + 275/169344 + ... = (A002206 unsigned=reduced A141417(n+1)/A091137(n+1))/a(n) is an old formula based on Gregory's A002206/A002207.
%C This formula for Euler's constant was discovered in 1924 by the Dutch mathematician Jan C. Kluyver (1860-1932). See reference below. - Hans J. H. Tuenter, Mar 06 2012
