Computational Techniques for the Summation of Series / by Anthony Sofo.

<STRONG>Computational Techniques for the Summation of Series</STRONG> is a text on the representation of series in closed form. The book presents a unified treatment of summation of sums and series using function theoretic methods. A technique is developed based on residue theory that is...
