AUTHOR

Dr. Alistair Ward

DESCRIPTION

Implements Algorithm by a variety of methods.

CAVEAT

Caller may benefit from application of simplify before operating on the result; which though of the required accuracy, may not be the most concise rational number satisfying that criterion.

Types

type Terms = Int

The number of terms in a series.
