%N Decimal expansion of integral from 1/2 to 1 of (1-x)/x dx.

%C Replacing 1/2 with any other number 0 < t < 1, the value of the integral is t - 1 - log(t).

%F Equals log(2) - 1/2 = A002162 - 1/2.

%F Equals Sum_{k>=1} 1/((2k-1)*(2k)*(2k+1)). - _Bruno Berselli_, Mar 16 2014

%F From _Amiram Eldar_, Jul 28 2020: (Start)

%F Equals Sum_{k>=0} (-1)^k/(k+3).

%F Equals Sum_{k>=2} 1/(k * 2^k).

%F Equals Sum_{k>=2} 1/(4*k^2 - 2*k).

%F Equals Sum_{k>=2} (zeta(k) - 1)/2^k.

%F Equals Sum_{k>=1} zeta(2*k + 1)/2^(2*k + 1). (End)

%F From _Bernard Schott_, Nov 22 2021: (Start)

%F Equals Sum_{k>=1} (S(k) - log(2)) when S(k) = Sum_{m=1..k} (-1)^(m+1) / m.

%F Equals Integral_{x=0..1} x/(1+x)^2 dx. (End)

%F Equals Sum_{k,m>=1} (-1)^(k+m)/(k+m). - _Amiram Eldar_, Jun 09 2022
