Sequences
Sequences
Build intuition for discrete patterns and their limits
Learn convergence, tests, and applications from finance to growth models.
Course Highlights
- View sequences as functions on ; connect discrete steps to continuous ideas.
- Understand convergence through – intuition and classic test cases.
- Meet arithmetic/geometric patterns, recurrence relations, and real-world growth/decay models.
- Practice-driven: short exercises with explanations in each chapter.
Sequence limits are the front door to calculus—master them and the rest of analysis feels friendlier.
Author’s Note
Every sequence hides a rule—like footsteps toward an unseen destination. Don’t stare at a single term; look ahead to the limit.
