%N A361972 Decimal expansion of lim_{n->oo} ( Sum_{k=2..n} 1/(k*log(k)) - log(log(n)) ).
%C A361972 Let u(n) = Sum_{k=2..n} 1/(k*log(k)) - log(log(n)), then (u(n)) is strictly decreasing and lower bounded by -log(log(2)) = A074785, so (u(n)) is convergent, while the series v(n) = Sum_{k=2..n} 1/(k*log(k)) diverges (see Mathematics Stack Exchange link).
%C A361972 Compare with w(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} 1/k - log(n) that converges (A001620), while the harmonic series H(n) = Sum_{k=1..n} 1/k diverges.
