Convergence tests

Alternating series test

In mathematical analysis, the alternating series test is the method used to show that an alternating series is convergent when its terms (1) decrease in absolute value, and (2) approach zero in the limit.The test was used by Gottfried Leibniz and is sometimes known as Leibniz's test, Leibniz's rule, or the Leibniz criterion. The test is only sufficient, not necessary, so some convergent alternating series may fail the first part of the test. (Wikipedia).

alternating series test for convergence and divergence

In this video I show how to use the alternating series test for convergence and divergence. I go over the actual theorem, the concept behind the theorem, then many examples involving various alternating series. The alternating series I investigate involve rational functions, natural log (l
