SUMMARY
The infinite series defined by the term (2n)!/(n^n) diverges. The ratio test and nth root test were applied, both yielding limits that approach infinity, indicating divergence. Stirling's approximation was suggested as a method to analyze the series further, but the conclusion remains that the series does not converge since the necessary condition for convergence is not met.
