Calculating a constant
Is it true that $$(7^{\frac{e}{1}-\frac{1}{e}}-9)\pi^2\approx$$ Jenny's Constant? If not, what does it equal? → Michael J Ⓣ Ⓒ Ⓜ 00:15, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
 * It is simple enough to type this formula into an online calculator. Wolfram Alpha evaluates it to 867.5309019816854097558275224961431838440297231328116937715. Staecker (talk) 00:54, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
 * According to the linked page (as well as OEIS), Jenny's constant is defined as $$(7^{\frac{e}{1}-\frac{1}{e}}-9)\pi^2$$. So, by definition, they are equal. -- Meni Rosenfeld (talk) 15:16, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
