Hi,
Note: n represents the positioning of the terms in the series.
If I am understanding the question properly:
%28n%2F2%29%2A%28%28-1%29%5En+%2B+1%29%29
.
n=1
%281%2F2%29%2A%28%28-1%29%5E1+%2B+1%29%29 = 0
.
n=2
%282%2F2%29%2A%28%28-1%29%5E2+%2B+1%29%29 = 2
.
n=3
%283%2F2%29%2A%28%28-1%29%5E3+%2B+1%29%29 = 0
etc
