Recently, I read an article about “almost-identities”. It said, that for every “almost-identity” we have to decide whether it is a coincidence or not. By myself, I discovered that
$$
\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{\pi^{\frac k2}}{\Gamma{\left(\frac k2+1\right)}}=e^{\pi}\left(1+\text{erf}\left(\sqrt\pi\right)\right)\approx45.9993260894...
$$
which is surprisingly close to $46$. So my question is: is this a mere coincidence or can it be “proven” in some sense?
