$a_{n}={\frac {\ln n}{n}}$

Foundations:
L'Hôpital's Rule
Suppose that $\lim _{x\rightarrow \infty }f(x)$  and $\lim _{x\rightarrow \infty }g(x)$  are both zero or both $\pm \infty .$
If $\lim _{x\rightarrow \infty }{\frac {f'(x)}{g'(x)}}$  is finite or  $\pm \infty ,$
then $\lim _{x\rightarrow \infty }{\frac {f(x)}{g(x)}}\,=\,\lim _{x\rightarrow \infty }{\frac {f'(x)}{g'(x)}}.$
