%N Decimal expansion of (4-sqrt(7))/3.

%C Decimal expansion of the shape (= length/width = ((4-sqrt(7))/3) of the lesser (8/3)-contraction rectangle.

%C See A188738 for an introduction to lesser and greater r-contraction rectangles, their shapes, and partitioning these rectangles into a sets of squares in a manner that matches the continued fractions of their shapes.
