Introduction to Sequences and Series: Fundamentals, Types, and Applications

Sequences and series are fundamental mathematical concepts dealing with ordered lists of numbers and their summation. A sequence is a set of numbers in a specific order, defined by a rule or formula, like the arithmetic sequence \(1, 3, 5, 7, \ldots\) or the geometric sequence \(2, 4, 8, 16, \ldots\). Each number in a […]

Types of Sequences and Series: Key Concepts with Practical Examples

Sequences and series come in various types. Arithmetic sequences have a constant difference between terms, while geometric sequences have a constant ratio. Harmonic sequences involve the reciprocals of integers, while Fibonacci sequences add the previous two terms. Series, the sum of sequence terms, follow similar classifications: arithmetic series, geometric series, and harmonic series. Convergence is […]
