In MO the user Caleb Briggs brings to discussion an old attempt of mine to the series \( T(x,2) = 1^{1^x} - 2^{2^x} + 3^{3^x} - \cdots + \cdots \) .
I've tried this on 2007, and only later learned some techniques with which I might have assessed this with more success. But my basic observations and also the computations that I'd been able to do (over a small range of the exponent \(x\) ) come out to be correct.
For the friends of visual data - there are some nice pictures to see there.
Here is the link :
