Update:
I did not change the code but this time the code executed and even returned a value. It seems that there was always a process running in the background and no other cell could be executed before I actively pressed the Stop button. You can consider my issue solved.
Dear all,
There are probably several issues with my answer for the 0.3.4 problem. One of it is that it seems to run forever (an asterix appears at the left side of the cell). I thought k = k + 1 would stop it from continuing the loop. Can someone help out?
Best,
Simon
def natural_logarithm(x, k_max):
total_value = 0
k = 0
while k <= k_max:
value = (1/(2*k+1))*((x-1)/(x+1))**(2*k+1)
total_value = total_value + value
k = k+1
return (2 * total_value)
answer_034 = natural_logarithm(2.71, 1)
print(answer_034)
