Yee (2010) computed 29844489545 decimal digits of gamma.
Decimal expansion of 0th Stieltjes constant. [From Paul Muljadi, Aug 24 2010]
The value of Euler's constant is close to (18/Pi^2)*sum(n>=0, 1/4^(2^n)) = 0.5770836328... = 6/5 * constant in A082020 * constant in A078585. [From Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Mar 27 2012]

FORMULA

Lim_{n->infinity} (1 + 1/2 + ... + 1/n - log(n)) (definition).
sum(n>=1, (1/n - log(1 + 1/n)) ), since log(1 + 1/1) + ... + log(1 + 1/n) telescopes to log(n+1) and Lim_{n->infinity} (log(n+1) - log(n)) = 0.
Integrate_{x=0..1} -log(log(1/x)). - (from Robert G. Wilson v Jan 04 2006)
Integrate_{x=0..1,y=0..1} (x-1)/((1-x*y)*log(x*y)) - (see Sondow 2005).
