"""Squared Nyman–Beurling approximation distances -- numberdb.org/T641.
Run with SageMath (or a compatible passagemath installation):
sage -pip install numberdb
sage -python generate.py # verify the stored draft/table
sage -python generate.py --fill # write entries, never publish it
Authentication for a private draft uses NUMBERDB_API_KEY. The campaign wrapper
may supply the key on stdin with NUMBERDB_KEY_FROM_STDIN=1.
The sole parameter is the positive integer truncation index. By default all
N=1,...,30 are computed in increasing order. The unanchored basis is
rho_n(x)={1/(n*x)} in L^2((0,infinity),dx). The target is 1_(0,1).
All arithmetic is Arb real ball arithmetic, including the LDL^T elimination.
Every pivot must be strictly positive. Therefore elimination encloses the
exact minimization problem and never divides by an interval containing zero.
The 256 extra working bits are measured in numerical-evidence.json; they are
not a replacement for the propagated enclosure. No stored rounded companion
values are used. See derivation.md and argument-selection.md.
