%N Decimal expansion of 1/phi = phi - 1.

%C Edge length of a regular decagon with unit circumradius. - _Stanislav Sykora_, May 07 2014

%C The value a+0i is the only invariant point of the complex-plane endomorphism M(z)=sqrt(2-sqrt(2+z)), and also its unique attractor, with the iterations converging exponentially from any starting complex value. Hence the infinite radical formula. - _Stanislav Sykora_, Apr 29 2016

%C With a minus sign, this constant is called beta and shares many identities with phi = A001622 (also called alpha); e.g., beta * phi = -1, Lucas numbers L(n) = A000032(n) = phi^n + beta^n. - _Andrés Ventas_, Apr 23 2022

%F From _Christian Katzmann_, Mar 19 2018: (Start)

%F Equals Sum_{n>=0} (15*(2*n)!-8*n!^2)/(2*n!^2*3^(2*n+2)).

%F Equals -1/2 + Sum_{n>=0} 5*(2*n)!/(2*n!^2*3^(2*n+1)). (End)

%F Equals i^(4/5) + i^(-4/5). - _Gary W. Adamson_, Feb 05 2022

%F From _Andrés Ventas_, Apr 23 2022: (Start)

%F Equals (sqrt(5)-1)/2.
