%C A069857 Start from any complex number z=x+iy, not solution to zeta(z)=z, iterate the zeta function on z. If zeta_m(z)=zeta(zeta(....(z)..)) m times, has a limit when m grows, then this limit seems to always be the real number C = -0.2959050055752....
%C A069857 C is not only a real fixed point of zeta, but the only attractive fixed point of Riemann zeta on the real line. - _Balarka Sen_, Feb 21 2013
