COMMENT

Contribution from Cino Hilliard (hillcino368(AT)hotmail.com), Sep 13 2008: (Start)

Also a root of 1/(x^(1/x)-1) - x = 0 and 1/(x^(1/x)-1/x-1) - x = 0 which also contains

the root 5.50798565277317825758902... 1/(x^(1/x)-1) ~ Pi(x) and

1/(x^(1/x)-1/x-1) ~ Pi(x) which is a much better approximation. These roots also

can be computed by the recurrences x = 1/(x^(1/x)-1) and x = 1/(x^(1/x)-1/x-1). (End)
