%N Decimal expansion of the constant Sum_{n>=0} 1/A112373(n), where the partial quotients of the continued fraction A114551 satisfy A114551(2n) = A112373(n) and A114551(2n+1) = A112373(n+1)/A112373(n).
%C A112373 is defined by the recurrence: let b(n) = A112373(n), then
%C b(n) =(b(n-1)^3 + b(n-1)^2)/b(n-2) for n>=2 with b(0)=b(1)=1.
%C Thus the sum of unit fractions 1/A112373(n) converges rapidly.
