PROBLEM. The sum S being given, to find a series of which it is the sum. 1. Reduce the sum S into a converging series, proceeding according to the dimensions of any small quantities, and it is done, For example: let any algebraical function S of an unknown or small quantity x be assumed, reduce it into a converging series proceeding according to the dimension of x, and there results a series whose sum is S.
