%N Decimal expansion of 2*(2 + sqrt(2)).
%C The greater one of the solutions to x^2 - 8 * x + 8 = 0. The other solution is A157259 - 3 = 1.17157... . - _Michal Paulovic_, Nov 14 2023
%F Equals 2*sqrt(2)*(1 + sqrt(2)) = 2*(2 + sqrt(2)). This is an integer in the quadratic number field Q(sqrt(2)).
%F Equals lim_{n->oo} A057084(n + 1)/A057084(n).
%F Equals continued fraction with periodic term [[6], [1, 4]]. - _Peter Luschny_, Nov 13 2023
