Answered by Scott
the terms are getting larger
... diverging

Answered by M, S, E,
So if the terms get larger it's called diverging and if they get smaller it's converging.
Answered by M, S, E,
Also, what does it mean to have a sum. Wouldn't you be able to add and series of numbers regardless of them being divergent or convergent?
