%N Decimal expansion of the real part of Li_2(I), negated.

%C This is the decimal expansion of the real part of the dilogarithm of the square root of -1. The imaginary part is Catalan's number (A006752).

%C 5*Pi^2/24 = 10 * (this constant) equals the asymptotic mean of the abundancy index of the even numbers. - _Amiram Eldar_, May 12 2023
