So I'm supposed to write a program that calculates how many terms it takes for (1/1)+(1/2)+(1/3)+(1/4)...(1/n) shall be more than 4.

I can't use matlabs built-in functions (sum, sorting). Thank you!

Use a while loop, and keep track of the accumulating sum in each iteration.

sorry but i don't understand. I am super new to matlab. Could you explain a bit more? Thank you

Best regards Rand Renwar

I was thinking something like this:

series_sum = 0;
k1 = 0;
while series_sum <= 4
    k1 = k1 + 1;
    series_sum = series_sum + 1/k1;
end
