Is the series \sum_(n=0)^\infty1/((2n+1)!) absolutely convergent, conditionally convergent or divergent?

use the appropriate test...
I know Root wouldn't work with a factorial, but I got stuck on Ratio, too.

I am at \stackrel(L)(\infty)|1/(2n+2)|, what should I put next?

"Compare it with "sum_{n=0}^oo 1/(n!) = exp(1) = e = 2.7182818...

Explanation:

"Each term is equal to or smaller than the"

sum_{n=0}^oo 1/(n!) = exp(1) = e = 2.7182818...

"All terms are positive so the sum S of the series is between"

0 < S < e = 2.7182818....

"So the series is absolutely convergent."
