Physics question (on capacitance)

[BigJelly]

I just took my physics exam at UW and I question really troubled me...

Find the capacitance (from point X to point Y) of this infinate circut, if all the capacators have a capacatance of Co:

X----||-----||-----||--
- -
- - to infinity ->
_ _
_ _
- -
- -
Y----||-----||-----||--

The underscores are meant to be capacitors and they are like a bridge across the top and bottom parts of the circut.

I got the Rennieman sum of Co/(i*2+1) from i=1 to infinaty.
Anyone know how to solve this?

The drawing got screwed up it is meant to show that there is a bridge between between each capacitor on the top and bottom with a capacitor in the center of that bridge.

You might want to repost this in the Highly Technical forum. You'll probably get better responses there.

The drawing is confusing me... Are these in parallel/series arrangements? If so, I guess just set up the general equations and set a limit as n-> infinity.

This is a better drawing of the problem. The dots (.) are just fillers since using spaces won't work.
