That’s because this is an alternating harmonic series.\begin{aligned} -1 &= (-1)^{1} \left(2 \cdot \dfrac{1}{1 + 1}\right)\\ \dfrac{2}{3} &= (-1)^{2} \left(2 \cdot \dfrac{1}{2 + 1}\right)\\-\dfrac{2}{4} &= (-1)^{3} \left(2 \cdot \dfrac{1}{3 + ...
An infinite series is the sum of terms in an infinitely long sequence, but taking the sum of terms in a finite portion of the sequence is called a partial sum. Explore these two concepts through examples of five types of series: arithmetic, geometric, harmonic, a...

There are some series that do not have a finite sum, such as the harmonic series (1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + ...), which diverges. It is important to use convergence tests to determine if an infinite series can be summed. What are some real-life applications of infinite series?
the singular series can be approximated with the corresponding infinite product (with an acceptable number of exceptions), one needs some information on the behaviour of the function ζ(s)/ζ n (s) near the line σ=1, where ζ n denotes the Dedekind ζ-function of the field (n 1/k )...
