Sequence: a string of numbers that follow a particular pattern

Sequence: a string of numbers that follow a particular pattern

1. When he partial sum of a geometric sequence has to be found, the sum will have an upper limit and a lower limit.

   • The common ratio of partial sums of this type has no specific restrictions.

2. geometric sequence: is defined by a multiplication or division

3. arithmetic sequence: the difference between terms is defined by an addition or a subtraction

4. each element is called "term"

5. referred to with S or with the symbol sigma.

6. The partial sum of a sequence is the sum of a limited number of elements within a sequence

7. An infinite geometric series is the sum of an infinite geometric sequence .

   • This series don't have a last term.

8. A sequence is convergent when it approaches some limit

   • if it does not converge, it is said it diverges
