COMMENTS

The divergent series sum_(n>=1) sin(n) sums to this value if interpreted as a geometric series; that is, sum_(n>=1) sin(n) = Im(sum_(n>=1) e^(ni)) = Im(-e^i/(e^i-1)) = 1/(2 tan(1/2)). If x_m = sum_(0<n<m) sin(n), then (max(x_1, x_2, ...) + min(x_1, x_2, ...))/2 tends to this number. Given by the series 1+sum_(n>=1) (-1)^n B_(2n)/(2n)!. Corresponding value for cos is -1/2.
