Zeta(2)
From OeisWiki
(Redirected from Pi squared over 6)
where is the Riemann zeta function.
Since pi is transcendental, zeta(2) is also transcendental.

Notes
- ↑ This famous problem in mathematical analysis (with relevance to number theory), known as the Basel problem, was first posed by Pietro Mengoli in 1644 and solved by Leonhard Euler in 1735. Since the problem had withstood the attacks of the leading mathematicians of the day, Euler's solution brought him immediate fame when he was twenty-eight.
