what is the sum of infinite number of zeros?

vendredi 30 mai 2014

dear all, lets consider a length L and divide it into N number of small segments uniformly. Then the length of every segment should be L/N.

then we add these segments up, which is

L=[itex]\sum[/itex][itex]\frac{L}{N}[/itex]

then we take the limit N→[itex]\infty[/itex] at both sides, this means

[itex]lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}[/itex]L=[itex]lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}[/itex][itex]\sum[/itex][itex]\frac{L}{N}[/itex]



the left hand is still L, and right hand will become, at the limit, [itex]\underbrace{0+0+0+...}_{infinite}[/itex]



therefore, the sum of infinite number of zeros will lead to a finite number ? This is my question. I hope someone could give some idea. Thank you !
