COMMENT

Sequence A137994 could be defined as "least positive integer such that this one (without rounding) is increasing".

The term a(1)=7 is not surprising (3 1/7=3.14...) but it comes as a funny surprise that the next term, a(2)=159, matches the next 3 decimals of pi and a(3) just differs by 5 from the next 3 decimals !

PROGRAM

(PARI) default(realprecision, 10^4); f=1; for(i=1, 10^9, frac(Pi^i)<f | next; f=frac(Pi^i); print1(round(1/f), ", "))

CROSSREFS
