I want to get the following output for the series:
(1 - 1/2 - 1/4) + (1/3 - 1/6 - 1/8) + (1/5 - 1/10 - 1/12) +
(1/7 - 1/14 - 1/16) . . .
What I did was
kl[n_]:=HoldForm[ 1/(2n+1)-1/(4n+2)-1/(4n+4)]
then I enter eg:
reihe= Sum[kl[n],{n,1,5}]
This works quite good, but the fractions are completely unevaluated
(because of HoldForm, I know) and display as
1
----------
4 2 + 2
But I want them displayed as
1
--
10
Is there a way to evaluate parts inside a HoldForm, so that the
fractions are evaluated but not the sums?
Gruss Peter
