<p>As we know, there is an asymptotic series for the digamma function when $z>0$ is a real number.
$$
\psi(z)=\ln z+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}{\frac{B_n}{nz^n}}
$$
$B_n$ is the first Bernoulli numbers.</p>
<p>How to make a proof?</p>

Here is a introduction from Wikipedia.

<p>This is a quite easy problem.
