nope. i didnt. i would not have. i would just have renamed the title which sounds a bit racist.
How do you solve the bonus question?

we consider the summation n = 1 ∑ k x 2 n − 2 = x 2 − 1 x 2 k − 1 and do the same as i did. I havent tried it out as calculations will get tedious.

@Aareyan Manzoor – Hmmm... that's what I started with, but I can't get a closed form.

i cant either. a search on wolfram alpha gives

@Aareyan Manzoor – There's one closed form by Lerch transcendent, but I doubt that's what the author had in mind.

look at the summation n = 1 ∑ ∞ x 2 n − 2 = 1 − x 2 1 integrating both side we have n = 1 ∑ ∞ 2 n − 1 x 2 n − 1 = 2 ln ( ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ 1 − x 1 + x ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ) divide both sides with x and put x = 2 1 . n = 1 ∑ ∞ ( 2 n − 1 ) 2 n − 1 1 = 2 ln ⎝ ⎜ ⎜ ⎛ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ 1 − 2 1 1 + 2 1 ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ ⎠ ⎟ ⎟ ⎞ = 2 2 ln ( 1 + 2 ) = 2 ln ( 1 + 2 ) we know a r c s i n h ( z ) = ln ( z + z 2 + 1 ) . at z =1, a r c s i n h ( 1 ) = ln ( 1 + 2 ) . so,the expression equals n = 1 ∑ ∞ ( 2 n − 1 ) 2 n − 1 1 = 2 a r c s i n h ( 1 ) and 1 0 0 ( 2 + 1 ) = 3 0 0
