    please help

    I need to write a program to find the sum, sum of squares, sum of the cubes, and sum of a certain series shown below for the first n integers, begining with 1 and ending with n = 100.

    Summing the first 100 natural numbers:

    ............... ............... ... n(n+1)
    1 + 2 + 3 + ..... + n = ----------
    ............... ............... ......... 2

    Sum of squares of the first 100 natural numbers:
    ............... ............... ........ n(n+1)(2n+1)
    1² + 2² + 3² + ……. n² = -------------------
    ............... ............... ............... ..... 6

    Sum of cubes of the first 100 natural numbers:

    ............... ............... ............... n² (n + 1)²
    1³ + 2³ + 3³ + ……. + n³ = --------------
    ............... ............... ............... ..... 4

    Another series:

    ...1........... 1............ 1.............. .......... 1.............. . n
    ------- + ------- + ---------- + .......... ---------- = .....--------
    (1 * 2)... (2 * 3).... (3 * 4)............. . n*(n+1) ........... n +1

    Since all of these series involve summing the same number of terms, do all of the summing inside ONE(1) loop. Compute the formats outside the loop. Use n as a variable in the formulas; do not replace it with 100, because the formulas work for any n and the program should be flexible enough to easily change the number of terms.

      unless and untill you start something no one is going to help you. You try first and then ask if you have any queries.
