conditional convergence
Denoting the situation in which a series converges but diverges when its terms are replaced by their absolute values.

One example is the series 1-1/2+1/3-1/4+1/5... , which converges but diverges when its terms are all replaced by their absolute values because 1+1/2+1/3+1/4+1/5... is divergent.
