%N A295872 Decimal expansion of the first Ramanujan trigonometric constant (negated).
%C A295872 According to the famous Ramanujan identity, the constant r_1 has a representation: r_1 = Sum_{i = 1..3} (cos(2^i*Pi/7))^(1/3) (see formula). This identity was submitted in 1914 by Ramanujan as a problem (cf. [Berndt, Y. S. Choi, S. Y. Kang]). For proof, see first [V. Shevelev].
