I know for a fact that harmonic series diverge. But what about harmonic sequences? If you take the limit of the harmonic sequence, it equals "0" which means that it converges right?

It is true that the harmonic series diverges, and the sequence converges. But if you are asking the question:\[\sum_{i=0}^\infty a_n\]does the series converge, it is not enough to check that:\[\lim_{n\longrightarrow \infty}a_n=0\]The harmonic series is an example of that.
