Good evening. Is there a way to take a decimal approximation and see if there is a relatively simple expression?
I'm guessing there might be software for this, but I'm not sure I'm even asking the appropriate question.
If it matters, the number I'm after is [tex]\sqrt{1+\sqrt{2+\sqrt{4+\sqrt{8+\sqrt{16+ ... }}}}}[/tex] . This is the powers of 2 under a nested radical.
