Infinite Sequences

Key Questions

• What is the difference between an infinite sequence and an infinite series?

  An infinite sequence of numbers is an ordered list of numbers with an infinite number of numbers.

  An infinite series can be thought of as the sum of an infinite sequence.

• How do you Determine whether an infinite sequence converges or diverges?

  The sequence #{a_n}# converges if #lim_{n to infty}a_n# exists (having a finite value); otherwise, it diverges.

• What is the definition of an infinite sequence?

  Informally, and (real-valued) infinite sequence is just an infinite list of real numbers #x_{1},x_{2},x_{3},x_{4},\ldots#.

  More precisely, an infinite sequence is a function whose domain can be taken (among other things) to be the set of positive integers #NN=\{\1,2,3,4,\ldots\}# and whose codomain is the set of real numbers #RR#. The output of the sequence at the input #n\in NN# is #x_{n}\in RR#.
