Solution.
We denote = p SN , as well as all similar sums with 1ï‚£ k ï‚£ p - 1 as k SN .
We plot then the graph of the function y = x p and mark integer-valued points to build a set of rectangles with the heights equal to n p and the unit length bases.
It's clear that the total sum of the rectangles ...
