3.3.6 convergence tests
Divergence Test:
when the nth term does converge
not to zero as n - a
Alternating Series Test:
when successive terms in the series alternate signs

Integral test:
when
you can substitute X form in then term and
nth get a function you can
integrate
f(x)=0, f(x) < 0
Ratio Test:
