I mean you could if you want to:

1/10 + -9/100 + -9/1000 + -9/10000 + ...

But I just meant them as series, not necessarily as sums.

Or

  1 - 9/10 - 9/100 - ...
or

  1 - ( 9/10 + 9/100 + ... )
So it becomes circular:

  0.00...1 = 1 - 0.999...

(In math a series is a sum:

Woops, you're totally right, I think I should've said "sequence".
