here in this vid is the best, I just understood the p-series test thoroughly

It's a pretty smart trick for seeing whether series converge, and I see how this could be applied to other types of functions. Thanks for the explanation, this definitely beats a statement of fact! 😊✊🏽🎊

why put the limitation of p > 0 if when p <= 0 we diverge by n-th term test:
p = 0:
1 + 1 + ... + 1 + ... - diverges because it's not decreasing
p < 0:
m = -p
x^m + (x+1)^m + ... - diverges as well (the polynomial keeps increasing)

This proof misses the case where p is negative.

What's up with the echo in this video? Did he transcend and become a maths god
