COMMENTS
Equals the alternating sum of a sequence of real numbers c(k) (see the Formula section). The Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to c(k) ~ O(k^(-3/4+eps)) for all eps>0 (Báez-Duarte, 2005).
The sum without the alternating signs is Sum_{k>=0} c(k) = 1/zeta(0) = -2.

FORMULA
Equals Sum_{k>=0} (-1)^k * c(k), where c(k) = Sum_{n>=1} mu(n)*(1-1/n^2)^k/n^2 = Sum_{j=0..k} (-1)^j * binomial(k,j)/zeta(2*j+2), where mu is the Möbius function (A008683).
Equals 1 + Integral_{x>=2} (1 - 1/2^floor(x/2)) * zeta'(x)/zeta(x) dx.
