Do you think finding the sum of an infinite series interesting? If so, you can learn more from Brilliant https://brilliant.org/blackpenredpen/ (20% off with this link)
We will find the series of zeta(s)-1 and it turns out to be a double summation problem. See here for another example of changing the order of a double summation: https://youtu.be/8BGxSgSkc2c. We will end up with a geometric series and then a telescoping series! Note, the limit of zeta(s) as s goes to infinity is tricky. Be sure to do it carefully.
