In base 2: A = 1.00011101001100100010010001000011111011111011010100...
In base 10: A = 1.1140463510380030496149942362001772475651431655583890...
This constant equals the sum of the following infinite series.
(1) A = 1 + 1/3^2 + 1/7^3 + 1/15^4 + 1/31^5 + 1/63^6 + 1/127^7 + 1/255^8 + 1/511^9 + 1/1023^10 + 1/2047^11 + 1/4095^12 + 1/8191^13 + 1/16383^14 + ...
Also,
(2) A = 1/2 + 5/2^4 + 9^2/2^9 + 17^3/2^16 + 33^4/2^25 + 65^5/2^36 + 129^6/2^49 + 257^7/2^64 + 513^8/2^81 + 1025^9/2^100 + 2049^10/2^121 + 4097^11/2^144 + ...
Expressed in terms of powers of 1/2, we have
(3) A = 1/2 + 1/2^2 + 1/2^3 + 2/2^4 + 1/2^5 + 3/2^6 + 1/2^7 + 4/2^8 + 2/2^9 + 5/2^10 + 1/2^11 + 9/2^12 + 1/2^13 + 7/2^14 + 7/2^15 + 9/2^16 + 1/2^17 + 19/2^18 + 1/2^19 + 14/2^20 + 16/2^21 + 11/2^22 + ... + A143862(n)/2^n + ...
