How to solve the summation when the indices $i$ and $j$ are dependent?



Please, anybody, explain. I am having no idea how to proceed.




Find the sum $$sum_0 leq i <sum_!!j leq n1$$

The domain of the integer pairs $(i,j)$ such that



$$0le i<jle n$$ is a triangle inside the square of size $n+1$ by $n+1$, diagonal excluded. Summing the term $1$ means that you just count those elements.



Hence you compute the area of the square minus the diagonal, and halve, giving



$$frac(n+1)^2-(n+1)2=fracn(n+1)2.$$

    Note that you can convert the expression into:



    $$sum_i=0^n-1bigg(sum_j=i+1^n 1bigg) = sum_i=0^n-1 (n-i) = sum_i=0^n-1 n - sum_i=0^n-1 i = n^2-fracn(n-1)2 = fracn(n+1)2$$



    When you see double sums like that, try breaking it up into individual sums. If one index (in this case, $j$) is conditional on another ($i$), the limit(s) of the dependent index can be expressed in terms of the other index. There's no reference/resource as such that comes to my mind, but it should get easier as you solve more and more such problems.

    We have that



    $$mathopsumsum_0le i<jle n 1=sum_i=0^n-1 left(sum_j=i+1^n 1right)=sum_i=0^n-1 (n-i)=nsum_i=0^n-11-sum_i=0^n-1 i=ncdot n-fracn(n-1)2=fracn(n+1)2$$

    For every pair $(i,j)$ with $0leq i<jleq2$ you must add $1$, so the summation gives you the number of such pairs, which is:$$binomn+12=fracn(n+1)2$$

              For every pair $(i,j)$ with $0leq i<jleq2$ you must add $1$, so the summation gives you the number of such pairs, which is:$$binomn+12=fracn(n+1)2$$
