Fun with engineers

I'm probably wrong but wouldn't it just be 535.49? Since the last term would go to 0 as it approaches infinity. I'm not a math-wiz so I'm interested to see the outcome!

HD

actually it should be 536.49 since that limit approaches 1 as n approaches infinity.
 
your both off...:) but joboy is closer

***Spoiler***
e^(i*pi) is -1, the infinite sum of 1/2^n converges to 1, so those two cancel out, leaving 0.002 as your answer. So it's 1/5 of a penny.

was this check a response to the fact that verizon can't do simple math?:D

New answer....2.002?
 
hence my being an idiot. I think the same mistake me and HD both made was that the i looked like a 2. Once I actually looked closely at the pic and realized it was an i, I was almost tempted to go change my post, but I'll leave my mediocrity for posterity. Hilarious by the way! What do I get for winning? What do I get for winning?!?:D (I didn't even cheat either):)
 
e^{i*x} = Cos(x) + i*Sin(x)

sum(x^n) converges to 1/(1 - x) for x < 1

That should be all you need.

My arithmetic lets me down sometimes, but I get 1.002.

Except I forgot to check the sum indices, so it could just be 0.002
 
This might help you guys get a life....

actually the best system for seduction is mystery method. Ya, getting a girl to pay for dinner and then sleeping with them.....SWEET!:D

Mystery method? Come again? I don't want there to be any "mystery" as to what I'm getting into.
