A125642 Divide the circle into ten "decants" (each of 36 degrees). Let z = 1/2 + i*14.134725142... be the first nontrivial zero of the Riemann zeta function. Then a(n) is the decant containing the argument of 1/n^z.

Examples

			a(5) = 4 since 1/4^z = has angle 136.58045... and the argument is between 108 and 144 deg., which is the 4th decant.

Formula

Given the first Riemann nontrivial zero, z = (1/2 + i*14.134725142...), extract the argument of 1/n^z (in polar coordinates) and map it on a unit circle by decants: (0 to 36 deg. = 1), (36 to 72 deg. = 2), (72 to 108 deg. = 3), (108 to 144 deg. = 4), (144 to 180 deg. = 5), (0 to -36 deg. = -1), (-36 to -72 deg. = -2), (-72 to -108 deg. = -3), (-108 to -144 deg. = -4), (-144 to -180 deg. = -5).
