Using the General Series Command on Nspire CX CAS

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on utilizing the General Series Command on the TI-Nspire CX CAS calculator to compute sums of series without specified domains. Users can input series such as $\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{9}+...$ using the template $\displaystyle \sum_{n=5}^{\infty}{\frac{1}{n}}$. However, it is important to note that this specific series is divergent, indicating that the calculator will not yield a finite sum. The conversation emphasizes the necessity of understanding series convergence when using this command.

Can't you just choose "Sum" from the main menu and fill in the sum template?
 
what if I am given a series in the form of $\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{9}+...$ how would i put that into the calculator?

You'd put in the template $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \sum_{n=5}^{\infty}{\frac{1}{n}} \end{align*}$, but it will tell you that this particular series is divergent.
