%N Decimal expansion of dilog(phi-1) = polylog(2, 2-phi) with phi = (1 + sqrt(5))/2.

%C dilog(phi-1) = polylog(2, 2-phi) = sum((2-phi)^k/k^2 , k =1 ..infinity) = sum((1 - 2*sin(Pi/10))^(2*k)/k^2, k=1..infinity) = Pi^2/15 - (log(phi-1))^2 = Pi^2/15 - (2/5)*log(phi-1)*(log(2-phi) + log(phi-1)/2).

%C See the Jolley reference pp. 66-69, (360)(e), and the Abramowitz-Stegun link, p. 1004, eqs. 27.7.3 - 27.7.6 with x = phi-1, solving for dilog(x) = f(x).

%F dilog(phi-1) = polylog(2, 2-phi) = Sum_{k>=1} (2-phi)^k/k^2 = Sum_{k>=1} (1 - 2*sin(Pi/10))^k/k^2.
