The OP simply was curious to know if it could be done using a Solver so posted it as a kind of "challenge", nothing else. Quote:Your version, based on a single-term of the the Chudnovsky formula, leaves 355/113 in the dust!!! My version isn't "based on a single-term of the Chudnovsky formula" as yours is; actually it's based on the Ramanujan's constant, i.e.: cf. Wikipedia: "Ramanujan's constant is the transcendental number e^(Pi*sqrt(163)), which is an almost integer, in that it is very close to an integer: 262,537,412,640,768,743.99999999999925... , approximately equal to 640,320^3+744. [...] This coincidence is explained by complex multiplication and the q-expansion of the j-invariant." V. All My Articles & other Materials here: Valentin Albillo's HP Collection |
