%N A157852 Absolute value of limit_{N -> infinity} (integral((-1)^x*x^(1/x),x=1..2*N).
%C A157852 The continuous counterpart of 1^(1/1)-2^(1/2)+3^(1/3)-4^(1/4)...2*integer 
               as n->infinity.
%C A157852 It is hard to integrate and very slow to converge.
%C A157852 From a numerical integration of the first 5 to 8 periods of the exp(i*pi*x) 
               and estimation of the remainder with a mixed Filon-Euler-Maclaurin 
               approach collecting up to the 5th order of the derivatives, we get 
               0.68765236884 (up to 6th order 0.68765236894, up to 7th order 0.68765236893), 
               all numbers rounded. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl),
