%N Decimal expansion of 2*log(sqrt(2)+1)/Pi.
%C The average distance between the center of a unit square to a point on its perimeter uniformly chosen by a random direction from the center.
%C If the point is uniformly chosen at random on the perimeter, then the average is (sqrt(2) + arcsinh(1))/4 (A345653).
