Find fix point of cos

Write a function to find the fix point of cos. It is not a good code; It is just to use vim. Inspired by the excellent https://mvanier.livejournal.com/2897.html about the Y combinator.

Start file

from math import cos


def find_cos_fix_point(j):
    a = 12.216
    for i in range(j):
        a = cos(a)

    print(a)


find_cos_fix_point(1)

End file

from math import cos


def find_cos_fix_point(j):
    a = 12.216
    for i in range(j):
        a = cos(a)

    print(a)


find_cos_fix_point(1)
find_cos_fix_point(10)
find_cos_fix_point(100)
find_cos_fix_point(1000)
find_cos_fix_point(10000)
find_cos_fix_point(100000)
find_cos_fix_point(1000000)
find_cos_fix_point(10000000)
find_cos_fix_point(100000000)
