EXAMPLE
| Smallest real roots r(n) of equation x^n + x = a(n)(2Pi), for n=2...8, are: x^2 + x = 1(2Pi), r(2)=2.0560009...; x^3 + x = 2(2Pi), r(3)=2.1817119...; x^4 + x = 4(2Pi), r(4)=2.1886076...; x^5 + x = 9(2Pi), r(5)=2.2233125...; x^6 + x = 20(2Pi), r(6)=2.2313694...; x^7 + x = 45(2Pi), r(7)=2.2372063...; x^8 + x = 101(2Pi), r(8)=2.2393436...
