3.5

The infinite series  converges on a value of f(n) = pi^4/90 as n approaches infinity. Compute the equation from i = 1 to 10,000 and 10,000 to 1. 
Pi^4/90 calculates to 1.08

syms k;
s1 = symsum( 1/k^4,1,10000);

ezplot(s1)

I plotted it again using
s2 = symsum( 1/k^4,10000,1);
 and the graph was a line on 0, I'm not sure why it doesn't converge the same way
