A series ${\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }{a}_n$ converges if its partial sums $s_N={\sum }_{n=1}^N{a}_n$ have a finite limit of a sequence $S$ as $N\to \infty$; its sum is then $S$. It has absolute convergence if the series ${\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }|a_n|$ converges, where $|a_n|$ is the absolute value of the term.
