FORMULA
Log(27) = Integral_{x = 0..oo} sin(4*x)^3/x^2 dx. - Peter Bala, Nov 04 2019
From Peter Bala, Feb 27 2024: (Start)
Equals 4 - 2*Sum_{k >= 0} 1/((2*k + 1)*(2*k + 3)*4^k).
Continued fraction: 4 - 16/(24 - 96/(84 - 1440/(186 - ... - 16*n*(n + 1)(4*n^2 - 1)/((2*(n + 1)*(10*n + 11)) - ... )))). (End)
