Nov 3, 2010 at 18:55 comment added Anixx The function is indeed periodic.
Nov 3, 2010 at 16:29 comment added David E Speyer In my case, I mean that numerical data which Anixx presented, without stating how many terms he was using or precisely what he computed, appear to my naked eye to be converging to a solution in a fairly large interval around $0$.
Nov 3, 2010 at 16:26 comment added Andrés E. Caicedo What does "appears to" mean here? Are we talking small error? Pointwise convergence in small intervals?
