The series whose terms are the quotients a(n)/A013709(n) (modified (4n+0) Wallis-Lambert-series-1) is convergent to 4*(1-3/Pi). Proof: Both the Wallis-Lambert-series-1=4/Pi-1 and the elliptic Euler-series=1-2/Pi are absolutely convergent series. Thus any linear combination of the terms of these series will be also absolutely convergent to the value of the linear combination of these series - in this case to 4(1-3/Pi). Q.E.D.

Examples

			For n=3, a(3)=300.

Formula

a(n) = 4*A268085(n).
a(n+1) = a(n)*4*(n+1)*(2*n+1)^2/(n*(n+2)^2) for n > 0. - Chai Wah Wu, Jan 28 2016
