Formula

c = Sum_{n>=0} log(1 + 1/2^n)^n/n! .

Example

c = 1.43063452436116865706618033755902955470687309850539879176075545...
c = 1 + 1/2 - 3/32 + 35/1024 - 7285/524288 + 1570863/268435456 -+...
c = 1 + log(3/2) + log(5/4)^2/2! + log(9/8)^3/3! + log(17/16)^4/4! +...
The formulas for this constant illustrate the identity:
Sum_{n>=0} log(1 + q^n*x)^n*y^n/n! = Sum_{n>=0} binomial(q^n*y, n)*x^n.
