What's wrong? Wolfram says it is convergent too.
 
Sorry, i just want to check the work. I am having some trouble convincing myself that it is correct. I keep getting that the ratio test is inconclusive (=1) so i need to see someone else work the problem.
 
I do not know about the ratio test but the series surely converges by the Cauchy root test.
 
I've got it, but it's messy with the ratio test unless you imply some limits. Root test FTW!
