\n" ); document.write( "1 + 3 + 5 + (2n-1) +.....+ (2*1000-1)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "The 1000th term is 1999
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Formula: S(n) = (n/2)(a(1) + a(n))
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "S(1000) = (1000/2)(1+1999)
\n" ); document.write( "= 500(2000)
\n" ); document.write( "= 1,000,000
