[tex]\Sigma[/tex][tex]^{\infty}_{n=1}[/tex][tex]\left[1/3^{ln\:n}}\right][/tex]

How do I go about testing the convergence of this series?

I have no clue which method I should be using, since most tests fails on this one.

You don't have to show me everything, just a nudge in the right direction should get me going on this question :)

Might help to know that [tex]3^{\ln{n}}=3^{\frac{\log_{3}{n}}{\log_{3}{e}}}=n^\frac{1}{{\log_{3}{e}}}[/tex]

Ah, here's the critical link. I got it, thanks! :D
