COMMENT

This constant x has the special property that the continued fraction expansion of 2*x results in the continued fraction expansion of x interleaved with 2's: contfrac(x) = [1;2,1,4,1,2,1,8,1,2,1,4,1,2,1,16,...A006519(n),... ] while contfrac(2*x) = [2;1, 2,2, 2,1, 2,4, 2,1, 2,2, 2,1, 2,8,... 2, A006519(n),...].

The continued fraction of x^2 has large partial quotients (see A100864, A100865) that appear to be doubly exponential.

EXAMPLE

PROGRAM

(PARI) /* This PARI code generates 1000 digits of x very quickly: */ {x=sqrt(2); y=x; L=2^10; for(i=1, 10, v=contfrac(x, 2*L); if(2*L>#v, v=concat(v, vector(2*L-#v+1, j, 1))); if(2*L>#w, w=concat(w, vector(2*L-#w+1, j, 1))); w=vector(2*L, n, if(n%2==1, 2, w[n]=v[n\2])); w[1]=floor(2*x); CFW=contfracpnqn(w); x=CFW[1, 1]/CFW[2, 1]*1.0/2; ); x}

(PARI) {CFM=contfracpnqn(vector(1500, n, 2^valuation(n, 2))); x=CFM[1, 1]/CFM[2, 1]*1.0}
