What is a sequence?A sequence is a list of numbers with a specified order.
Ex.
The sequence converges if:
exists.
Otherwise, it diverges.

What is a series?A series is the sum of an
infinite sequence.
A partial sum is the sum:
If:exists,
then, the series converges.
Otherwise, it diverges.

Geometric SeriesWhen we have a
series of the form:
it is called a geometric series.

Harmonic and p-SeriesThere is the special series called the harmonic series.
This always diverges!
More generally:
We have the p-Series

A series converges absolutely if:
converges.
A series converges conditionally if:
converges, but
diverges.

Strategies for SeriesAlways try the Test for Divergence first!
1.Does it look like one of the 4 special cases?
➡Geometric
➡Telescoping
➡Harmonic
➡p-Series
2.Does it look integrable?
➡Use the Integral Test
3.Does it look similar to another series?
➡Use one of the Comparison tests

Power SeriesA power series centered about a is a series with the form:
cn is called the coefficient of the
series.
Our goal for power series is to:
1. Find the radius of convergence.
2. Find the interval of convergence.
We use the
to find the radius and interval of convergence.

Representation of Functions
We can represent functions as power series.
We will use
to write functions as power series.
Our strategy is to make our functions look like this
function.
We can do this by taking the derivative or
integral of the series.
