Formula

tau(n) = -log(2)^(n+1)/(n+1) + Sum_(k=0..n-1) (binomial(n, k)*log(2)^(n-k)*gamma(k)).

tau(5) = gamma*log(2)^5 - (1/6)*log(2)^6 + 5*log(2)^4*gamma(1) + 10*log(2)^3*gamma(2) + 10*log(2)^2*gamma(3) + 5*log(2)*gamma(4).

Mathematica

tau[n_] := -Log[2]^(n+1)/(n+1) + Sum[Binomial[n, k]*Log[2]^(n-k)*StieltjesGamma[k], {k, 0, n-1}]; Join[{0}, RealDigits[tau[5], 10, 100] // First]
