COMMENTS

This is also the unique positive attractor of the mapping M(x) = sqrt(sqrt(sqrt(2*x))). In general, (p^N-1)-th root of a number f can be approximated by iterating the mapping M(x) = (f*x)^(1/p^N). The convergence is very fast. In this case, p=2, N=3, and f=2. In the form "evaluate the 3rd (or 7th or 15th) root of a number using only square roots", the insight is usable as a recreational math puzzle. - Stanislav Sykora, Oct 26 2015
