Formula

Equals Sum_{k>=1} (exp(-1/k) - 1 + 1/k).

Comment from Velin Yanev, Mar 03 2023 (Start)

Apparently equals 1/2 - Integral_{x=0..oo} (coth(Pi/x)*(sin(x)/x^2 - 1/x) + 1/Pi) dx.

The proposed expression is difficult to evaluate to arbitrary precision.

Maple code: evalf[50](1/2 - Int(coth(Pi/x)*(sin(x)/x^2 - 1/x) + 1/Pi, x = 0 .. infinity));

Mathematica code: 1/2-NIntegrate[Coth[Pi/t] (Sin[t]/t^2-1/t)+1/Pi,{t,0,Infinity},WorkingPrecision->50,MinRecursion->7]

(End)
