FORMULA
Continued fraction representation: cos(1) = 1/(1 + 1/(1 + 2/(11 + 12/(29 + ... + (2*n - 2)*(2*n - 3)/((4*n^2 - 2*n - 1) + ... ))))). See A275651 for proof. Cf. A073743. - Peter Bala, Sep 02 2016
Equals Sum_{k >= 0} (-1)^k/A010050(k), where A010050(k) = (2k)! [See Gradshteyn and Ryzhik]. - A.H.M. Smeets, Sep 22 2018
Equals 1/A073448. - Alois P. Heinz, Jan 23 2023
