| An amazing thing i saw
S = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6...
= 1 + 2(2/2 + 3/2 + 4/2 + 5/2 +6/2....)
= 1 + 2(1 + 3/2 + 2 + 5/2 + 3...)
= 1 + 2(1+ 2 + 3 ... + 3/2 + 5/2...)
= 1 + 2S + 2Σ_(n= 1) ^∞ ((2n + 1)/2)
or,S − 2S = 1 + Σ_(n=1) ^∞ 2n + 1
∴ −S = Σ_(n=0) ^∞ 2n + 1
Sum of all odd numbers!
I know the step S−2S = −S is not allowed
