There is a rich and seemingly endless source of definite integrals that can be equated to or expressed in terms of Catalan's constant. Denoted by G and defined by $${\rm{G}} = \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {{{{{\left( { - 1} \right)}^n}} \over {{{\left( {2n + 1} \right)}^2}}} = 1 - {1 \over {{3^2}}} + {1 \over {{5^2}}} \ldots = 0.915\,965\,594 \ldots \,\,,}$$ Scott in [1] quipped that this constant seemed almost as useful as the more widely known Euler–Mascheroni constant γ, particularly in the… Expand
