COMMENTS

Other roots of the equation x^7 - x^6 - ... - x - 1 see in A239566. For n>=7, round(c^prime(n)) == 1 (mod 2*prime(n)). Proof in Shevelev link. - Vladimir Shevelev, Mar 21 2014
Note that we have: c + c^(-7) = 2, and the k-nacci constant approaches 2 when k approaches infinity (Martin Gardner). - Bernard Schott, May 07 2022
