%N Decimal expansion of the limit of the maximum real root of M(n,-x) as n -> infinity, where M(n,x) is the n-th Moebius polynomial and satisfies M(n,-1) = mu(n) the Moebius function of n.
%e Let R(n) = max zero of M(n,-x), then R(5) = 2.961148315..., R(10)= 2.980078049..., R(15)= 2.986397371..., R(oo)= 2.98745813668722007...
