    It does diverge. It has no sum.
    However, the uniquely valued #Riemann #ZetaFunction can be analytically continued into the left half-plane where we find zeta(-1)=-1/12 (which 'looks like' 1+2+...). #Cesàro #summation will get you part of the way there also, and, as you say, yields the same result; presumably due to some ultimate cosmic logical rightness :-)
    I very strongly recommend BP's superb exposition of this issue

  2. Interesting integral! #Challenge
    \[\displaystyle\int_0^1\dfrac{\ln (x)\ln(1-x)}{x(1-x)}\operatorname{Li}_2(x)\ dx=5\zeta(2)\zeta(3)-8\zeta(5)\]
    Where \(\operatorname{Li}_2(x)\) denotes the dilogarithm (or Spence's function), and \(\zeta(x)\) denotes the Riemann zeta function.
