%N Decimal expansion of a close approximation to the Ramanujan constant.
%C First differs from Ramanujan's constant (A060295) at a(33). - _Omar E. Pol_, Jun 26 2012
%C Kontsevich & Zagier give also exp(3*log(640320)) = 2.62537412640768000... as a close approximation to the Ramanujan constant. - _Jean-François Alcover_, Jun 22 2015
