Well, i'm looking other Divergence and convergence tests for series other than divergence test, limit ratio test, ratio test. State the theorem as well. Thank you very much.

Raabe's Test is a nice generalization of the ratio test:

Suppose that lim |a_{n+1} /a_n|=1 (the case where the ration test is inconclusive) and Let

L=lim n(|a_{n+1} /a_n| -1).

If L<-1, then the sum of a_n is absolutely convergent.

This sequence will converge. look on the numerator: it rather is going to in basic terms oscillate, and could in no way exceed 2, no remember how super n turns into. so we are able to forget approximately with regard to the numerator for the needs of determining divergence/convergence. finding at in basic terms the denominator: a million/(n)(n)^(a million/3) = a million/n^(4/3) bear in mind the rule for a geometrical sequence: if the denominator is raised to the flexibility of something extra desirable than a million, it converges. If raised to the flexibility of a million or much less, it diverges. (4/3) > a million, so the sequence converges.

And you haven't already checked the wikipedia? Shame.
