: But they aren't geometric series, because each term is not a : multiple of the previous term. This can be seen if you just extend the : series a little more: : 1 + 1/4 + 1/9 + 1/16 + 1/25 + 1/36 + 1/49 + 1/64 + 1/81 + ... Okay, this looks like a harmonic series consisting of perfect squares :) If I remember correctly, you can't sum a harmonic series using a formula. -- rl Ronald Low, ronl@io.org
