Comments

This is the limit of the reordered alternating harmonic series 1 + 1/3 - 1/2 + 1/5 + 1/7 - 1/4 + 1/9 + 1/11 - 1/6 + ... + ... - ..., with partial sums given in A262031/A262022. This shows that the alternating harmonic series is conditionally convergent. For original references on such series see A262031.

Formula

Equals 3*A002162/2.

Equals A016631/2.

3*log(2)/2 = (3/2)*Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/n = Sum_{n>=1} ((-1)^(n+1)/n + (-1)^(n+1)/(2*n)) = A002162 + (A016655/10). - Terry D. Grant, Jul 24 2016
