Note that, asAs an asymptotic expansion, this series is [[divergent series|not convergent]]: it is a reasonable approximation only if the series is truncated at a finite number of terms, and only large values of ''x'' are employed. This expansion follows directly from the asymptotic expansion for the [[exponential integral]].
 
This implies e.g. that we can bracket li as:
