%N Decimal expansion of Sum_{n>=1} 1/phi(n)^2.

%C The logarithm of the value can be expanded in a series Sum_{j>=2} c(j)*P(j) = P(2) + 2*P(3) + (7/2)*P(4) + ... where P(.) is the prime zeta function. The partial sums of the series are a slowly oscillating function of the upper limit of j, from which the bracketing interval [3.390642005572503655..., 3.390642005572504756...] for the constant can be computed. - _R.
