[edit] Cohen, Rodriguez Villegas and Zagier method

There's a method (or rather, a collection of methods), due to Cohen, Rodriguez Villegas and Zagier, which beats the Euler-type methods by quite a way. I don't have the reference to hand, but can find it without too much difficulty. It's worth a mention, for its use with alternating series! Hair Commodore 13:59, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Found it, at: Experiment. Math. 9, iss. 1 (2000), 3–12. Hair Commodore 14:15, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Villegas and Zagier are number theorists; is this a paper on series acceleration for special functions/hypergeometric series, or is it a numerical methods paper? linas 16:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merging to sequence transformations

I am merging to sequence transformations. That is a more substantial article, and series acceleration is a special case. Loisel 06:06, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
