* Introduction A sequence is a set of real numbers. It is a function, which is defined for the positive integers. The value of the function at a given integer is a term of the sequence. The range of a sequence is the collection of terms that make up the sequence. If the sequence only be defined for the positive integers up to a given integer n is called infinite sequences. If a sequence defined only for positive integers up to a certain integer are called finite sequences. A common way to represent a sequence is to lie out the members of a sequence in a list with a first member second member and so on as the example shown below: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5..... In this sequence the first term is 0, the second term is 1, and so on. Notice that sequence doesn't have to be defined by a sensible...
