I have a question, /sci/.
It involves some basic mathematics.
I am dumb, and hours of googling and reading ebooks on the subject has turned up nothing.
This involves telescopic sums, where you determine the sum of a (pre)recursive function by using a term that has not yet been evaluated.
If your lower limit is 0, and your upper limit is 10, and the function of the sum is (a.(n+1)*3) with n+1 meaning the next term
what is the solution to the sum?
Look for a polynomial [math]P[/math] such that [math]P \left( X \,+\, 1 \right) \,-\, P\left( X \right) \,=\, a\, \left(n \,+\, 1 \right)^3[/math] (hint: it will be of degree 4) and then you can turn it into a telescopic sum.

Meant [math]a\, \left(n \,+\, 1\right)^3[/math].

so I have to have something like 2a^3+3a^2+a+4?
