We test the convergence of (ln(n)/n)^2 with a weird limit comparison test with L'Hopital's rule, including the motivation for limit comparison to 1/n^(3/2).
This limit comparison seems weird, but we motivate the successful comparison by looking at two inconclusive comparisons: one limit comparison to the harmonic series and one limit comparison to 1/n^2. Both of these are inconclusive for opposite reasons -- our terms are smaller than the divergent series, but larger than the convergent series. Finally, we try a comparison in between: the weird comparison 1/n^3/2 and we successfully show that the series converges by the limit comparison test.
