… die Genauigkeit von [HTML_REMOVED] ist von [HTML_REMOVED] abhängig und damit hängt auch das Ergebnis davon ab. Fünf Nachkommastellen von [HTML_REMOVED] sind zu wenig.
… the accuracy of [HTML_REMOVED] and of the result depend on [HTML_REMOVED]. Five positions after decimal point of [HTML_REMOVED] are not enough.

I used ellipses to indicate that I had more significant digits than 5,
my problem is that I had more than a thousand digits, without success.
I am surprised, because the problem looks simple and should be easy to solve. I tried both floating and integer division on l/y. With my long Euler number, I get about 25 matches out of 80.
There are only 10000 pairs of (x,y) for each level, so it should definitely be tractable.
Thanks for the tips.

Could you send me the results you calculated and the source code of the program used. I'll have a look at it then. (I checked the challenge solution before using SageMath and it worked well).

Managed to do it with Python using "math.e". No idea how many digits that has.
