But the whole concept of things like 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 and so on approaches one, is useful if, say, you want to draw a line of elephants, each holding the tail of the next one: normal elephant, young elephant, baby elephant, dog-sized elephant, puppy-sized elephant, all the way down to Mr. Tusks and beyond.
Cijeli koncept stvari kao što su 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 itd  se približava jedinici, je koristan ako želite nacrtati liniju slonova, gdje svaki drži rep sljedećeg: normalan slon, mladi slon, beba slon, slon veličine psa, slon veličine šteneta, sve do  Mr. Tusksa i poslije.
