Syntax:
SERIESSUM(x, n, m, Coefficients)
Description:
This returns a power series based on the following formula:
SERIESSUM(x,n,m,a) =
a1*x^n + a2*x^(n+m) + a3*x^(n+2m) + a4*x^(n+3m) + ...
x is the base.
n is the exponent for the first element in the series.
m is the increment for n.
Coefficients are the coefficients by which the individual elements of the series are multiplied. Coefficients can be either a cell reference or a single-column array.
The number of coefficients also determines the number of elements within the power series. If, for example, 10 coefficients are specified, the series will consist of 10 elements.
Example:
SERIESSUM(2, 2, 1, {1; 2; 3; 4; 5}) returns 516
