%N Least number k such that phi(k) = m, where m runs through the values (A002202) taken by phi.
%C Inverse of Euler totient function.
%C A051445 without the zeros. The values of m are in A002180.
%C According to Guy, the first even term is for 2m = 16842752 = 257*2^16. If there are only five Fermat primes, then terms will be even for 2m = 2^r for all r > 31. This was discussed in problem E3361. - _T. D. Noe_, Aug 14 2008
