For a real number , let be the number of terms in the convergent to a regular continued fraction that are required to represent decimal places of . Then Lochs' theorem states that for almost all ,

(OEIS A086819; Lochs 1964). This number is sometimes known as Lochs' constant.
The reciprocal of this constant is

Lochs' constant is related to the Lévy constant by

In the index and table of constants Finch (2003, pp. 546 and 596) refers to the quantity

related to Porter's constant as "Lochs' constant," though this terminology appears to be nonstandard.
