calculus - How to decide about the convergence of sum(nlognloglogn)1?

In Baby Rudin, Theorem 3.27 on page 61 reads the following:





Suppose a1a2a30. Then the seires n=1an converges if and only if the series
k=02ka2k=a1+2a2+4a4+8a8+ converges.




Now using this result, Rudin gives Theorem 3.29 on page 62, which states that




If p>1, n=21n(logn)p converges; if p1, the series diverges.





Right after the proof of Theorem 3.29, Rudin states on page 63:




This procedure may evidently be continued. For instance, n=31nlognloglogn diverges, whereas n=31nlogn(loglogn)2 converges.




How do we derive these last two divergence and convergence conclusions
by continuing the above procedure as pointed out by Rudin?




I mean how to prove the convergence of the seires
n=31nlogn(loglogn)2?



And, how to prove the divergence of n=31nlognloglogn using the line of argument suggested by Rudin?
