Determine all possible real values of X that satisfy this equation:
X-X1-X = 2
*** n^n^n is equal to n^(n^n), and NOT (n^n)^n
>> syms x
>> solve(( x^(-(x^(1-x))) ==2),x)

ans =
- 1.309736557638615259713209871911 + 0.40750196122111731029640787257841i
>>
which Wolfram Alpha does show as causing the expression to evaluate to 2, although Wolfram Alpha could not solve the equation to begin with.
But this is a complex value, not a real value.
