COMMENTS
Decimal expansion of the length/width ratio of a sqrt(6)-extension rectangle. See A188640 for definitions of shape and r-extension rectangle.
A sqrt(6)-extension rectangle matches the continued fraction [2,1,4,6,1,1,2,25,3,...] for the shape L/W=sqrt(4+sqrt(15)). This is analogous to the matching of a golden rectangle to the continued fraction [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,...]. Specifically, for the sqrt(6)-extension rectangle, 2 squares are removed first, then 1 square, then 4 squares, then 6 squares,..., so that the original rectangle of shape sqrt(4+sqrt(15)) is partitioned into an infinite collection of squares.
