Hi bobbym,
Okay.
Yes, they are all awesome!

Hi gAr;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: Series
I used only one variable.
From the partial fractions, I wrote the two series and added them.

Hi gAr;
How did you get that to work? Can I see your solution?

Re: Series
Oh yes, I remember your solution now. Do you know that was the first tough problem I worked on when I first joined. I was very tentative back then and when I solved that problem without Jane or mathsyperson finding an obvious error I began to gain confidence in the way I did things.

Re: Series
Sometimes! The ones that you solve in a day or two are fun. But there are those that last for years. Nothing you try works, I have a number of those.

Re: Series
True!
Nothing is better than a problem that falls apart to a method only you know!
I am going to take a little break, see you then.

Hi bobbym,
Okay, take your time.
I'll post the questions as I remember or encounter it, otherwise I may forget later!

Hi bobbym,
Okay.
Are you really working on 6?
I feel 6 and 8 are the easier ones, relatively.
