1. Consider the equation
(1-x)n+1 = C0 - C1x + C2x2 - ...+Cn+1xn+1

multiply by x throughout and integrate wrt x and then put x=1

2. Consider: i am assuming to n terms
(1+x)n = C0 + C1x + C2x2+ ...+Cnxn
Divide both sides by x and then integrate. and then put x=1

U wud get the value for C1+C2/2+C3/3+...
multiply the value by 1/2 and u will get the answer
