The terms at and are and its negative. Thus the partial sums ending at an odd index are zero, while those ending at equal . Considering both subsequences proves convergence of the full sequence of partial sums, not merely of grouped terms.
The paired sum of absolute values is . Since for , these pairs dominate , whose series diverges by comparison with the harmonic series. The original series therefore has conditional convergence with the displayed sum.
