Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 4, Problem 1E
Explanation of Solution
Given code snippet:
//define the static function
public static double fractionSum(int n) {
//declare the required variables
int denominator = 1;
double sum = 0.0;
//loop to generate the sequence
for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
//evaluate the value
sum += (double) 1 / denominator;
//increment the value
denominator++;
}
//return statement
return sum;
}
Explanation to the above code snippet:
- In the above code, the static method named “fractionSum” is defined.
- Required variables are declared and initialized.
- For loop is initialized to generate the required sequence.
- Evaluate the value and store it in the variable “sum”.
- The value stored in the variable “sum” is returned.
