- Homework Statement
- ##\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n \frac {x^\left(n+1\right)}{n+1}## for x=1
- Relevant Equations
- power series
##\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n \frac {x^\left(n+1\right)}{n+1}## for x=1
##\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n \frac {1^\left(n+1\right)}{n+1}##
i've tried leibniz test but i can only find that it converges
why is this power equal to ##log(2)##?
i've also tried with ##\sum_{n=0}^\infty\log \left (1+\frac 1 {n+1}\right)##
but does not lead to that result
what am i missing ?
