	COMMENTS	`This constant is also associated with the asymptotic number of lozenge tilings; see the references by Santos (2004, 2005). It is called the "maximum asymptotic normalized entropy of lozenge tilings of a planar region". Santos (2004, 2005) mentions that is computed in Cohn et al. (2000). For discussion of lozenge tilings, see for example the references for sequences A122722 and A273464. - Petros Hadjicostas, Sep 13 2019`
