Increasing partial quotients are: 1,3,5,7,9,16,59,100,129,314,2294,1568705

e^gamma appears in theorems of Mertens, Gronwall, Ramanujan, and Robin on primes, the sum-of-divisors function, and the Riemann Hypothesis (see Caveney-Nicolas-Sondow 2011, pp. 1-2).

Examples

			1 + 1/(1 + 1/(3 + 1/(1 + 1/(1 + 1/(3 + 1/(5 + 1/(4 + ...)))))))
