From Alexander R. Povolotsky, Jun 23 2009, Apr 04 2012: (Start)

One could observe that the last four of Class Number 1 expressions in T. Piezas "Ramanujan Pages" could be expressed as the following approximation:

exp(Pi*sqrt(19+24*n)) =~ (24*k)^3 + 31*24

which gives 4 (four) "almost integer" solutions:

1) n = 0, 19+24*0 = 19, k = 4;

2) n = 1, 19+24*1 = 43, k = 40;

3) n = 2, 19+24*2 = 67, k = 220;

4) n = 6, 19+24*6 = 163, k = 26680; this of course is the case for Ramanujan constant vs. its integer counterpart approximation. (End)

From Alexander R. Povolotsky, Oct 16 2010, Apr 04 2012: (Start)

Also if to expand left part above to

exp(Pi*sqrt(b(n)))

where b(n) = {19, 25, 43, 58, 67, 163, 232, ...}

then the expression

(exp(Pi*sqrt(b(n))))/m

(where m is either integer 1 or 8 )

yields values being very close to whole integer value:

Note, that the first differences of b(n) are all dividable by 3, giving after the division:

{2, 6, 5, 3, 32, 33, ...}. (End)
