    How do I troubleshoot my EEPROM test code problem?

    This simple code is test the write and read of EEPROM. Firstly the LED at P1 will have all LED on, after a sec, have the P1 will have LED on. Next, code is to write 01010101B into the EEPROM. CJNE will check to see if it is written. But, after comparing, the data isn't similar...

    Finding the Limit of a Root Test: Calculating the Limit of a Challenging Term

    Hello. How do I find the limit of this term? $$\lim_{{n}\to{\infty}}|\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^{\!{n^2}}|^\frac{1}{n}$$ This is the working but I don't understand how to get the third line. r = lim(n→∞) |[n/(n+1)]^(n^2)|^(1/n) ..= lim(n→∞) [n/(n+1)]^n ..= lim(n→∞) 1 / [(n+1)/n]^n...

    MHB Series Convergence Test Questions

    Just a few quick questions this time: I'm doubting the first one mostly, because when I used the integral test to evaluate it: I ended up getting (-1/x)(lnx +1) from 2 to infinity, which gave me an odd expression: (-1/infinity)(infinity +1 -ln2 -1). I'm assuming this means it is convergent...

    Why Does Complex Mapping T(z) = Az + B Fail Linearity?

    Hello, Given the complex linear mapping: T(z) = Az + B where A is real and B is complex. However trying to show that T(a * z1 + z2) = a * T(z1) + T(z2) does not work which implies the mapping is not linear? Why does not this rule apply here? Thanks.
