A square wave is indeed the result of adding together the fundamental
sinusoidal wave with decreasing power of the odd harmonics.  In other
words if you take a fundamental sine wave and then add to it, in phase,
its third harmonic at one-third the amplitude plus the fifth harmonic at
one-fifth amplitude and so on then the further you go the closest you
will get to a perfect square wave.  Try drawing it on a piece of paper
and you'll see.
