Accepted Answer

"$$S = {1 \over {x + 1}} + {2 \over {{x^2} + 1}} + {{{2^2}} \over {{x^4} + 1}} + ...... + {{{2^{100}}} \over {{x^{{2^{100}}}} + 1}}$$

$$S + {1 \over {1 - x}} = {1 \over {1 - x}} + {1 \over {x + 1}} + ...... = {2 \over {1 - {x^2}}} + {2 \over {1 + {x^2}}} + ....$$

$S + {1 \over {1 - x}} = {{{2^{101}}} \over {1 - {x^{400}}}}$

$S = 1 - {{{2^{101}}} \over {{2^{400}} - 1}}$"
