%N Decimal expansion of 1/x, where x is the unique positive solution of f(x) = 1 and f(x) is the generating function of A000084.

%C Also the decimal expansion of 1/x, where x is the unique positive solution of g(x) = (1+x)/2 and g(x) is the generating function of A000669.

%C Since the generating function g satisfies 2*g(x)-x+1 = exp(Sum_{k>=1} g(x^k)/k), this constant is also the decimal expansion of the positive solution to Product_{n>=1} (1-1/x^n)^(-A000084(n)) = 2 (see A000084).

%C This constant is the growth rate of A000084 and A000669. That is, lim_{n->infinity} A000084(n+1)/A000084(n) equals this constant, and similarly for A000669. As a result, the growth rate of A363064 is bounded below by this constant.
