From Alexander R. Povolotsky, Apr 09 2012: (Start)
K. S. Lucas found, by brute-force search, using Maple programming, several different variants of integral identities which relate each of several first Pi convergents (A002485(n)/A002486(n)) to Pi.
I conjecture the following identity below, which represents a generalization of Stephen Lucas's experimentally obtained identities:
  (-1)^n*(Pi-A002485(n)/A002486(n)) = (1/abs(i)*2^j)*Integral_{x=0..1} (x^l*(1-x)^m*(k+(k+i)*x^2)/(1+x^2)) dx where {i, j, k, l, m} are some integers (see the Mathematics Stack Exchange link below). (End)

This is an approximation to Pi. It is accurate to 0.04025%.
Consider the recurring part of 22/7 and the sequences R(i) = 2, 1, 4, 2, 3, 0, 2, ... and Q(i) = 1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7, 1, .... For i > 0, let X(i) = 10*R(i) + Q(i). Then Q(i+1) = floor(X(i)/Y); R(i+1) = X(i) - Y*Q(i+1); here Y=5; X(0)=X=7. Note 1/7 = 7/49 = X/(10*Y-1). Similar comment holds elsewhere. If we consider the sequences R(i) = 3, 2, 3, 5, 5, 1, 4, 0, 6, 4, 6, 3, 4, 3, 1, 1, 5, 2, 6, 0, 2, 0, 3, ... and Q(i) = A021027, we have X=3; Y=7 (attributed to Vedic literature). - K.V.Iyer, Jun 16 2010, Jun 18 2010
The sequence of convergents of the continued fraction of Pi begins [3, 22/7, 333/106, 355/113, 103993/33102, ...]. 22/7 is the second convergent. The summation 240*Sum_{n >= 1} 1/((4*n+1)*(4*n+2)*(4*n+3)*(4*n+5)(4*n+6)*(4*n+7)) = 22/7 - Pi shows that 22/7 is an over-approximation to Pi. - Peter Bala, Oct 12 2021

355/113 is the third convergent of the continued fraction expansion of Pi (A001203). - Lekraj Beedassy, Jun 18 2003
In one of Ramanujan's papers, a note at the bottom states that "If the area of the circle be 140,000 square miles, then RD [RD = d/2 * Sqrt(355/113) = r*Sqrt(Pi), very nearly] is greater than the true length by about an inch."
This approximation of Pi was suggested by the astronomer Tsu Chúng-chih (A.D. 430 - 501) (see Gullberg). - Stefano Spezia, Jan 13 2025

The average distance between consecutive terms decreases very slowly, and this pattern can be observed in this sequence up to values of m as high as 2^42 where the average distance is about four times lower than at the beginning of the sequence.

It seems that sequences of the form b(n) = (k*prime(n)) mod x exhibit a quasi-periodic sawtooth-like trend with slightly decreasing period when x is a positive irrational and k is the numerator (or a multiple of it) of a convergent to x. The Mathematica program in Links allows an easy experimentation on this feature and similar patterns obtained with other irrational constants x, and integer factors k.

			a(1) is 71 because (11*prime(71)) mod Pi = ~3.133072, a larger value than (11*prime(72)) mod Pi = ~0.018034. For any other primes p and q such that p < q < prime(71) we can see that (11*prime(p)) mod Pi < (11*prime(q)) mod Pi.
a(2) is 179 because (11*prime(179)) mod Pi = ~3.133735, a larger value than (11*prime(180)) mod Pi = ~0.018697. For any other primes p and q such that prime(71) < p < q < prime(179) we can see that (11*prime(p)) mod Pi < (11*prime(q)) mod Pi.
