%N Decimal expansion of lowest Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian within a certain L-shaped region.
%C This is the lowest Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian within the famous L-shape formed by joining two unit-edged squares to adjacent edges of a third. The familiar logo of MathWorks, publisher of MATLAB, is created from the corresponding lowest eigenfunction, with some artistic license. I simply extended the original Fox-Henrici-Moler 1967 eigenvalue calculation to just over 1000 digits using a method substantially identical to the method described in the Fox et al. paper.
