If $c>1$ then $c^n < c^{n+1}$. Raise both sides to the power $\frac1{n(n+1)}$ to get $c^{1/(n+1)} < c^{1/n}$. In other words, $z_{n+1} < z_n.$

Yep. (Nod) So we can indeed extend f to a continuous function with $f(x,0)=x^2\frac\pi 2$, $f(0,y)=y^2\frac\pi 2$, and $f(0,0)=0$.

4. Hello jacobi,

When you thank someone two things happen, the tally of the number of thanks that user has received is increased by one, and the number of thanks you have given is increased by one. These are two of the stats on users that the forum software keeps track of, and it serves as a type of reputation system.

Best Regards,

Mark.
