Re: MATH 128A

I'm sorry I was unable to answer your question yesterday.
As for your question, you pick a sequence beta_n that satisfies the
inequality, but is easy to deal with. For example if you are looking
at lim (1/n)+(1/n!), then you can see that (1/n!) is much smaller
than (1/n), so the whole thing (1/n)+(1/n!)< K/n for some constant
K, so we say the error is O(1/n).
Does that help?
