Pure Python implementation of Harmonic Series algorithm

Parameters:

n_term – The last (nth) term of Harmonic Series

Returns:

The Harmonic Series starting from 1 to last (nth) term

Examples: >>> harmonic_series(5) [‘1’, ‘1/2’, ‘1/3’, ‘1/4’, ‘1/5’] >>> harmonic_series(5.0) [‘1’, ‘1/2’, ‘1/3’, ‘1/4’, ‘1/5’] >>> harmonic_series(5.1) [‘1’, ‘1/2’, ‘1/3’, ‘1/4’, ‘1/5’] >>> harmonic_series(-5) [] >>> harmonic_series(0) [] >>> harmonic_series(1) [‘1’]
