%N Decimal expansion of lim_{k -> +-oo} k^2*(1 - Gamma(1+i/k)) where i^2 = -1 and Gamma is the Gamma function.

%C Limit_{k->oo} k*(1-Gamma(1+1/k)) = -Gamma'(1) = gamma = 0.577....

%C Decimal expansion of the higher-order exponential integral constant gamma(2,1). The higher-order exponential integrals, see A163931, are defined by E(x,m,n) = x^(n-1)*Integral_{t=x..oo} (E(t,m-1,n)/t^n) dt for m >= 1 and n >= 1, with E(x,m=0,n) = exp(-x). The series expansions of the higher-order exponential integrals are dominated by the gamma(k,n) and the alpha(k,n) constants, see A163927. - _Johannes W. Meijer_ and _Nico Baken_, Aug 13 2009

%F From _Johannes W. Meijer_ and _Nico Baken_, Aug 13 2009: (Start)

%F G(2,1) = gamma(2,1) = gamma^2/2 + Pi^2/12.

%F G(k,n) = (1/k)*(gamma*G(k-1,n)) - (1/k)*Sum_{p=1..n-1} (p^(-1))* G(k-1,n) + (1/k) * Sum_{i=0..k-2} (Zeta(k-i) * G(i,n)) - (1/k)*Sum_{i=0..k-2}(Sum_{p=1..n-1} (p^(i-k)) * G(i,n)) with G(0,n) = 1 for k >= 0 and n >= 1.

%F G(k,n+1) = G(k,n) - G(k-1,n)/n.

%F GF(z,n) = GAMMA(n-z)/GAMMA(n).

%F (gamma - G(1,n)) = A001008(n-1)/A002805(n-1) for n >= 2. (End)
