If 1 / z + z = 2 cos θ 1/z+z=2\cos { \theta } then, The value of the expression 1 z 2015 + z 2015 \frac { 1 }{ { z }^{ 2015 } } +{ z }^{ 2015 } can be expressed in the form k cos n θ k\cos { n\theta } where k k and n n are integers, what is the value of n + k n+k ?

P.S. This problem is not original. I just feel like this needs to be shared here.
