HOW DO PATTERN WORKS?
PATTERNS AND SEQUENCE PATTERNS are numbers, shapes or other objects that are arrange according to a rule.
WHAT IS SEQUENCE? A sequence is a function whose domain is the finite set{1,2,3,…,𝑛} or the infinite set {1,2,3,…}. IT IS A CHAIN OF NUMBERS THAT USUALLY FOLLOW A PARTICULAR PATTERN. THE INDIVIDUAL ELEMENTS IN A SEQUENCE ARE CALLED TERMS .
FINITE AND INFINITE SEQUENCES A sequence is infinite if its domain is the set of positive integers without a last term, {1, 2, 3, 4, …}. The three dots shows that the sequence goes on and on indefinitely. Example: 1. Counting Numbers: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, …} 2. Multiples of three: {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, …}
FINITE AND INFINITE SEQUENCES A sequence is finite if its domain is the set of positive integers, {1, 2, 3, 4, …n} which has a last term, n. Example: 1. Vowels in the alphabet : {a, e, i , o, u} 2. First 5 positive perfect squares: {1, 4, 9, 16, 25}
How about getting the 100 th term on the sequence?
