Does lim(n-->inf) Un=0 imply that Sum of Un converges as n-->inf?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, I think it does. Let me check a little more.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pls provide a egsample

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And also the following condition must be satisfied, Un-1> Un>Un+1, which means if you find one of the terms to be zero when n is very very large but the trend is not getting smaller with n getting larger then the series in not converging. Please refer to the site http://www.math.unh.edu/~jjp/radius/radius.html

U mean the function shud ebe decreasing .. right? if there any his shud be divergen? any egsamples

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you asking "if the terms go to zero, then does the sum converge?" if so the answer is no emphatically no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

canconical example is \[\sum\frac{1}{n}\] the well known divergent harmonic series

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks dude...
