COMMENT
|
If there is a set of consecutive numbers in this sequence starting at k, this means that k-1 is a good approximation to Pi.
If the set of successive integers is longer that approximation k-1 better (see A138336).
Comment from Joerg Arndt (arndt(AT)jjj.de), Mar 17 2008: Does Mathematica's N[((quantity)), n] round a number (if so, to what base?) or truncate it? Is Mathematica's Recognize[] guaranteed to give the correct relation? I do not think so: that would be a major breakthrough. That is, this sequence may not even be well-defined.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=19 because 3.141592653589793238 (18 digits) is root of -3061495+674903*x+95366*x^2 and 3.1415926535897932385 (19 digits) also is root of that same polynomial -3061495+674903*x+95366*x^2
