Few days ago My boss put a deal in front of us to write the above mentioned program and get One Mc Veggie ?

The time given was 8 hrs

I was not able to complete it, can anyone take it

Note:- Please don't look for Google or any external help 😀

    Cant we do it using Log series?? Obviously it wont give exact answer as it needs the limit to infinity, but u can get an approximation. Take a large number as limit and compute the series.
