FORMULA
Equals Pi/sqrt(2).
Equals A063448/2.
c = 2*( Sum_{k >= 0} (-1)^k/(4*k + 1) + Sum_{k >= 0} (-1)^k/(4*k + 3) ) = 2*(A181048 + A181049). - Peter Bala, Sep 21 2016
From Amiram Eldar, Aug 07 2020: (Start)
Equals Integral_{x=0..Pi} 1/(cos(x)^2 + 1) dx = Integral_{x=0..Pi} 1/(sin(x)^2 + 1) dx.
Equals Integral_{x=-oo..oo} 1/(x^4 + 1) dx.
Equals Integral_{x=-oo..oo} x^2/(x^4 + 1) dx.
Equals Integral_{x=0..oo} log(1 + 1/(2 * x^2)) dx. (End)
Equals Integral_{x=0..2*Pi} 1/(3 + sin(x)) dx; since for a>1: Integral_{x=0..2*Pi} 1/(a + sin(x)) dx = 2*Pi/sqrt(a^2-1). - Bernard Schott, Feb 19 2023
Equals 20/9 - 160*Sum_{n >= 1} 1/((64*n^2 - 1)*(64*n^2 - 4)*(64*n^2 - 9)). - Peter Bala, Nov 09 2023
