FORMULA
Equals 16*A247037.
Equals Psi(1, 3/4), where Psi(r, x) is the Polygamma function of order r.
Because this equals Zeta(2, 3/4), with the Hurwitz Zeta function, this is the value of the series Sum_{k>=0} 1/(k + 3/4)^2 = 16*Sum_{k>=0} 1/(4*k+3)^2 with partial sums {A173953/(n+2) / A173954(n+2)}_{n>=0}. - Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 14 2017
A282823 - this = 16*A006752. - R. J. Mathar, Jun 07 2024
