Ratio test

In mathematics, the ratio test is a test (or "criterion") for the convergence of a series where each term is a real or complex number and an is nonzero when n is large. The test was first published by Jean le Rond d'Alembert and is sometimes known as d'Alembert's ratio test or as the Cauchy ratio test. (Wikipedia).

Pre-Ratio Test

The Pre-Ratio Test. In this video, I prove an important result about sequences called the pre-ratio test which is used in calculus. This will be valuable when we will study series. It says that, the root test is strictly better than the ratio test in the following sense: if the ratio test

Ratio Test

This calculus 2 video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the ratio test. Examples include the ratio test with factorials, exponents, fractions, and square roots. If the limit of the ratio of next term with the previous is less than 1, the series converges. If it's more than 1,
