Problem 45960. Set the Euler-Mascheroni constant with an identity using available MATLAB functions
Cody Problem 42826 asked us to estimate the Euler-Mascheroni constant γ= 0.5772156649... by summing terms in an infinite series. This problem asks you to set the constant with an identity that uses functions available in MATLAB. For example, when I started programming, I read some code that set π not with an assignment such as pi = 3.14159 but with the identity pi = 4*atan(1).
Find an analogous identity and use it to set γ to 10 decimal places.
