Hi
please help me with my homework. its due tomorrow
i have 6 questions, here's the first:

write a program to find the sum of the numbers of the infiite series:
1+x+x**2+x**3+x**4+ . . . .
where the number of terms is 'n' and the value of 'x' are input before the summation begins.

this is my first question and i don't know how to make the exponents. I know its got something to do with the number of terms.

thanks in advance! Smile

p.s. i dont want anyone to tell me the answer, but help me with it. i think i almost have it except for the exponent thing.
