SEQUENCES Meaning and Definition

  1. Sequences are a fundamental concept in mathematics and computer science that refer to a ordered collection or arrangement of elements that follow a specific pattern or rule. Each element in a sequence is typically related to the previous and/or following elements, creating a systematic progression.

    Sequences can contain various types of elements such as numbers, letters, or symbols, and they can be finite or infinite in length. In a finite sequence, the number of elements is countable and has a definite endpoint, whereas an infinite sequence continues indefinitely without an end.

    The pattern or rule that governs the sequence is often expressed through a formula or recursive relation. A formulaic sequence is determined by a fixed, explicit formula that allows to calculate any term in the sequence. On the other hand, a recursive sequence is defined by relating each subsequent term to previous terms, often through a recursive formula, where one or more previous terms are used to generate the next term.

    Sequences are widely used in mathematics and computer science for various purposes, including number patterns, series, functions, and algorithms. They provide a systematic way of organizing and analyzing information, allowing for the study of patterns, predictions, and mathematical modeling. Furthermore, in computer science, sequences play a crucial role in data structures and algorithms, facilitating efficient storage and manipulation of information.
