Later we will manipulate sequences in much the same way you have manipulated functions in algebra or calculus. We can shift a sequence up or down, add two sequences, or ask for the rate of change of a sequence. These are done exactly as you would for functions.

We have also seen that sometimes it is more convenient to give a verbal description of the rule for a function. In cases where the domain and codomain are small, finite sets, we used an arrow diagram to convey information about how inputs and outputs are associated without explicitly stating a rule. In this section, we will study some types of functions, some of which we may not have encountered in previous mathematics courses.

    In this section, we introduce sequences which are an important class of functions whose domains are the set of natural numbers.

    In this section, we introduce sequences and define what it means for a sequence to converge or diverge.

We show how to find limits of sequences that converge, often by using the properties of limits for functions discussed earlier. We close this section with the Monotone Convergence Theorem, a tool we can use to prove that certain types of sequences converge.

It covers various types of sequences, including arithmetic and geometric, and explains how to represent sequences explicitly and recursively. The section also discusses limits of sequences and provides examples to illustrate how sequences behave, helping readers understand convergence and divergence.

That is, can we describe the pattern of the sequence of even numbers using a formula? Absolutely! This section will explore arithmetic sequences, how to identify them, mathematically describe their terms, and the relationship between arithmetic sequences and linear functions. Let’s get started!
