Sum of Zeta Constants
The following sums can be derived from the generating function:
where is the digamma function.
Series related to the Euler–Mascheroni constant (denoted by γ) are
and using the principle value (which of course effects only the value at 1) these formulae can be stated nicer as
and show that they "live" only because the principle value of .

“Wonderful “Force of Public Opinion!” We must act and walk in all points as it prescribes; follow the traffic it bids us, realise the sum of money, the degree of “influence” it expects of us, or we shall be lightly esteemed; certain mouthfuls of articulate wind will be blown at us, and this what mortal courage can front?”
