%N Decimal expansion of (4/3)*Pi*Sum_{k>=1} 1/k^(3/2).
%C Total volume of an infinite stack of spheres having radii 1, 1/sqrt(2), 1/sqrt(3), ...
%C Both the height and the surface area of the stack are infinite, while the volume converges to this constant. See the linked YouTube video (where the constant is given with a lower precision).
