The harmonic series diverges.
Let us show this by the comparison test.
by grouping terms,
by replacing the terms in each group by the smallest term in the group,
since there are infinitly many
Since the above shows that the harmonic series is larger that the divergent series, we may conclude that the harmonic series is also divergent by the comparison test.
