%N Decimal expansion of Nicolas's constant in his condition for the Riemann Hypothesis (RH).

%C Nicolas proved that RH is true if and only if limsup_{n-->infinity} (n/phi(n) - e^gamma*log(log(n)))*sqrt(log(n)) = e^gamma*(4 + gamma - log(4*Pi)), where phi(n) = A000010(n).

%F Equals e^gamma*(4 + gamma - log(4*Pi)), where gamma is the Euler-Mascheroni constant.

%F Equals e^gamma*(2 + beta), where beta = Sum 1/(rho*(1-rho)), where rho runs over all nonreal zeros of the zeta function.
