Comments

F(z,k) = Integral_{t=0..z} 1/(sqrt(1-t^2)*sqrt(1-k^2*t^2)) dt and the complete elliptic integral CK is defined by CK(k) = F(1,sqrt(1-k^2)). We calculate the values of CK(k) with k = 1/p, p = 1,2,3, ... and we propose a very interesting property: a(n+1)/a(n) tends toward e = 2.7182818... when n tends to infinity. For example, a(8) / a(7) = 2.718281581; a(9) / a(8) = 2.7182817562.

Examples

			a(3) = 38 because floor(CK(1/37)) = 4 and floor(CK(1/38)) = 5.
