Comments

The Berndt-type sequence number 3 for the argument 2Pi/7 (see A215007 and A215008 for the respective sequences numbers 1 and 2) is defined by the following relations: sqrt(7) *a(n) = s(1)*s(2)^(2n) + s(2)*s(4)^(2n) + s(4)*s(1)^(2n) = s(4)*s(1)^(2n) + s(1)*s(2)^(2n) + s(2)*s(4)^(2n), where s(j) := 2*sin(2*Pi*j/7).
