FORMULA
a(n) = Product_{k=1..floor(n/2)+1} (2k-1)^binomial(n,2k-2).
EXAMPLE
Pi/2 = (2/1)^(1/2) * (4/3)^(1/4) * (32/27)^(1/8) *
(4096/3645)^(1/16) * ...,
e = (2/1)^(1/1) * (4/3)^(1/2) * (32/27)^(1/3) * (4096/3645)^(1/4) * ... and
e^gamma = (2/1)^(1/2) * (4/3)^(1/3) * (32/27)^(1/4) * (4096/3645)^(1/5) *
