Title: Catalan's Constant [Ramanujan's Formula]

Note: Ramanujan's Formula

Credits: Produced by Greg Fee

Summary: "Catalan's Constant [Ramanujan's Formula]" by Greg Fee is a scientific publication likely written in the late 20th century. The book extensively discusses the calculation and significance of Catalan's constant, employing Ramanujan's formula along with computational techniques to derive the constant to an impressive precision of 300,000 digits. The opening of the work outlines the computational process used to calculate Catalan's constant, detailing the algorithm executed on a Sun Ultra-Sparc. It offers insights on the mathematical foundations of the calculation, including the Euler transform and references to established mathematical literature. The section also reveals the ambitious nature of the project, highlighting prior records in the computation of mathematical constants and setting the stage for an in-depth exploration of Catalan's constant throughout the publication.
