Line 9:
This constant was known and studied by many early mathematicians, but was not named until 1978, after Roger Apéry, who was first to prove it was an irrational number.
<math>\zeta(3)</math> by summing reciprocal cubes is easy to calculate, but
Line 32:
;* Show the value of Apéry's constant calculated at least three different ways.
;:# Show the value of at least the first 1000 terms of <math>\zeta(3)</math> by direct
;:# Show the value of the first 158 terms of Markov / Apéry representation truncated to 100 decimal digits.
;:# Show the value of the first 20 terms of Wedeniwski representation truncated to 100 decimal digits.
