SERIES DEF: A sequence is a list of numbers written in a definite order: DEF: Is called a series Example:
2
SERIES DEF: DEF: Is called a series its sum n-th term convergent
Example: its sum n-th term DEF: If the sum of the series convergent is finite number not infinity

Notice that the terms cancel in pairs. This is an example of a telescoping sum: Because of all the cancellations, the sum collapses (like a pirate’s collapsing telescope) into just two terms.

SERIES THEOREM:THE TEST FOR DIVERGENCE Divergent THEOREM: Convergent
REMARK(1): The converse of Theorem is not true in general. If we cannot conclude that is convergent. Convergent REMARK(2): the set of all series If we find that we know nothing about the convergence or divergence

Adding or Deleting Terms
SERIES Adding or Deleting Terms REMARK(4): Example A finite number of terms doesn’t affect the divergence of a series. REMARK(5): Example A finite number of terms doesn’t affect the convergence of a series. REMARK(6): A finite number of terms doesn’t affect the convergence of a series but it affect the sum.
