What to Focus On
- A sequence is an ordered list of numbers.
- Sequences may be finite or infinite.
- Each number in a sequence is called a term.
- An explicit formula uses n directly.
- It gives the term value without previous terms.
- Odd numbers have explicit rule u_n = 2n - 1.
- A recursive rule uses previous term(s).
- Earlier terms are needed to find later terms.
- APs can be written recursively.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Any list of numbers is a sequence, even if the order does not matter.
A sequence must be infinite, so a finite sequence is not a real sequence.
The position number n and the value of the term are the same thing.
