%N Denominators of the coefficients in a series for the angles in the Spiral of Theodorus.

%C S(i) is the sum of the angles in the first i-1 triangles of the Spiral of Theodorus (in radians). [corrected by _Robert B Fowler_, Oct 23 2022]

%C S(i) = K + sqrt(i) * (2 + 1/(6*i) - 1/(120*i^2) - 1/(840*i^3) + ...) where K is Hlawka's Schneckenkonstante = A105459 * (-1) = -2.1577829966... .

%C The coefficients in the polynomial series are A351861(n)/a(n). The series is asymptotic, but is accurate for even very low values of i.

%C See A351861 for the numerators, as well as references, links, and crossrefs.

%e 2/1 + 1/(6*i) - 1/(120*i^2) - 1/(840*i^3) + ...

%t c[0] = 2; c[n_] := ((2*n - 2)!/(n - 1)!) * Sum[(-1)^(n + 1) * BernoulliB[n - k] * k!/(4^(n - k - 1) * (2*k + 1)! * (n - k)!), {k, 0, n}]; Denominator @ Array[c, 30, 0] (* _Amiram Eldar_, Feb 22 2022 *)
