How the fuck does 1+2+3+4...=-1/12?
Is there a video on this or something?

He used an equation which only applies to a specific set of series, and breaks elsewhere. Lo and behold, it broke elsewhere
>>
>>7926677
it really doesn't converge to that. Are you stupid? You are summing positive integers and you get a negative fraction. That's retarded. 1+2+3+4.. diverges off to infinity.
>>
>>7926442
anon you cant sum a divergent series

You can assign a value to divergent series, it just isn't its sum in the most direct sense.
