Question

I'm having trouble with harmonic series in java.
The method I'm supposed to fill in retrieves an Epsilon and based on that returns the sum of the series.
The problem is, my sum is a tiny bit off.
What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

You are supposed to add terms of 1/n until the next term smaller than epsilon. In the code you provided you're trying to add epsilon terms instead, which should be impossible since epsilon is a number smaller than 1 and n is an integer.
