Explaining $sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=1}^nCov(Y_i,B_j)=sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=1,jneq...

Sorry for the non-specific title, I was unsure of how to word this.



I can't wrap my head around this calculation where they split the summation $$sum_{i=1}^n sum_{j=1}^n operatorname{Cov}(Y_i,B_j) = sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=1, jneq i}^noperatorname{Cov}(Y_i,B_j)+ sum_{i=1}^n operatorname{Cov}(Y_i,B_i).$$



Can someone explain how this works?



Full calculation:

Nevermind, I think I worked it out. It's because the summation after the + sign is summing over the i-th terms of Y and B which was excluded from the summation the first summation after the = sign, due to j != i

          $$sum_{i=1}^n sum_{j=1}^n Cov(Yi,Bj) = sum_{i=1}^n (sum_{j=1, j!=i}^n Cov(Yi,Bj) + sum_{j=i}^nCov(Yi,Bj)space)$$
          $$= sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=1, j!=i}^n Cov(Yi,Bj) + sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=i}^n Cov(Yi,Bj)$$
          Second sum in the second term is only defined once at $space j=i$. Therefore, we can substitute $i$ for $j$ and eliminate the second summation.
          $$ = sum_{i=1}^nsum_{j=1, j!=i}^n Cov(Yi,Bj)+ sum_{i=1}^n Cov(Yi,Bi)$$
