I know that
[tex]
\sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty{1} = \infty
[/tex]
But I don't understand why.
It seems to me that since the constant inside the summation is not dependent upon n it can be moved outside the summation. Then there is nothing to sum. It seems to me that
[tex]
\sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty{1}
[/tex]
should equal 1.
What am I missing?
