# Divergence Test # Divergence Test
**If $\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n \ne 0$ then $\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n$diverges.** **If $\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n \ne 0$ then $\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n$diverges.**
The divergence test only tells us that if the limit does not equal zero, then the series diverges. If the limit is zero, it doesn't necessarily mean the series converges.

# Eventually converging/diverging
Sometimes a series is not continually positive for the entire series, meaning most tests on series do not apply. To get around this, you can split the series into two or more parts. A finite negative number + infinity is still infinity, and a finite negative number + a finite number is still a finite number.
