Let b(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (2^k * (k!)^2)/(2k + 1)!. Then:
b(n) = 1 + 1/3 * (1 + 2/5 * (1 + … (1 + n/(2n+1)))) = A087547(n+1)/A001147(n+1).
lim n -> infinity b(n) = Pi/2.

Examples

			b(0) = 1, so a(0) = 1.
b(1) = 4/3, so a(1) = 3.
b(2) = 22/15, so a(2) = 15.
b(3) = 32/21, so a(3) = 21.
b(4) = 488/315, so a(4) = 315.
