EXAMPLE
|
The largest square with 1, 2, 3, 4, ... digits is, respectively, 9 = 3^2, 81 = 9^2, 961 = 31^2, 9801 = 99^2, ....
Here we list the sequence of digits of these numbers: 9; 8, 1; 9, 6, 1; 9, 8, 0, 1; 9, 9, 8, 5, 6; ...
This can be considered, as for the Champernowne and Copeland-Erdős constants, as the decimal expansion of a real constant 0.98196198...
