Calculus II: Estimating the value of a series using the Integral test

In this video, we discuss how to use the integral to obtain a bound in the error of an estimation of a series when evaluating certain kinds of series. We also discuss about how many terms someone would need to add up in a series to be accurate to a certain amount.
