COMMENT

355/113 is good approximation for Pi because 4 successive integers occured in this sequence 5, 6, 7, 8

If the set of successive integers is longer that approximation k-1 better.

For smallest last integer after which occured exactly n successive integers see A138339

EXAMPLE

a(1)=3 because 3.14 (2 digits) is approximated by 22/7 and 3.1415 (rounded to 3 digits =3.142) also by 22/7

a(2)=5 because 3.14159 (rounded to 4 digits = 3.1416) is approximated by 355/113

and 3.14159 also bu 355/113 a(3)=6 and 3.1415926 (rounded to 5 digits 3.141593)
