Try another version of this question Does the series `sum_{n=6}^{oo} \ 1/n` converge absolutely, converge conditionally, or diverge? Does the series `sum_{n=6}^{oo} \ (-1)^n/n` converge absolutely, converge conditionally, or diverge? Get help: Box 1: Select the best answer Box 2: Select the best answer
To determine the type of convergence, first check if the series converges absolutely by testing `\sum |a_n|`. If that converges, the series converges absolutely. If not, check if the original series converges. If the original converges but the absolute value series diverges, it converges conditionally.
diverges (harmonic series)
converges conditionally (alternating series test)
