Abstract
In a recent paper a new direct proof for the irrationality of Euler´s number
e = ∑k = 0∞ 1/k!
and on the same lines a simple criterion for some fast converging series representing irrational numbers was given. In the present paper, we give some generalizations of our previous results.
Keywords: irrationality; infinite series
