So close, but no closer... (Posted on 2014-12-04)

Determine the value of the smallest positive integer N such that N^1/N contains precisely one zero immediately following the decimal point.

Too easy?

How about seven zeroes, then?

Ady,

I believe I know :) The series I obtained is:

{39,652,9124,116678,1416368,16626518,190660035,2148818406,23897019597,262952388206,2868480351123,...}

I don't pretend to have checked them all by doing the necessary sums!
