TRUE MATH
Try to prove it...
1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 ... (and goes for the infinity) = 1/2

If I remember correctly, it has something to do with the way that sums/series work when dealing with infinities. I don't remember exactly how it reduces, but I remember my mind being moderately blown the first time it was explained to me.
Now, my attempt, as I think about right now, would be to reduce it to an infinite series of the sum of one minus one:
(1 - 1) + (1 - 1) + (1 - 1) + ....
Which would of course reduce to 0 + 0 + 0 + ... = 0...
I know this is wrong (because I've not correctly applied whatever rule leads to the 1/2 answer,) but from a straightforward idiot's logic approach, it makes sense.

Let S = 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1..., then 1 - S = 1 - (1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1...). This simplifies to 1 - S = 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1.... This means 1 - S = S which is simplified to 1 = 2S and finally S = 1/2.
|
|
|
|
|
Or
S = (1 - 1) + (1 - 1) + ... = 0
S = 1 - (1 - 1) - (1 - 1) - ... = 1
2S = 1
S = 1/2

The traditional - and entirely wrong  - approach is:
G = 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + ...
1 - G = 1 - (1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + ...)
= 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1 - ...
= G
1 = 2G
1 / 2 = G
The correct answer is that the series doesn't have a sum in any meaningful sense.
Or, for the quantum-minded, the sum is both 0 and 1 at the same time.
