Sequences

Ordered lists of numbers or objects following a specific pattern.

In mathematics, sequences are ordered lists of numbers or objects that follow a specific pattern or rule.

The term 'sequence' comes from the Latin word 'sequens,' meaning following or subsequent.

Sequences are like lists where things follow a pattern, such as counting 2, 4, 6 or finding the next shape in a design.

The Fibonacci sequence appears in nature, like the spiral arrangement of sunflower seeds
Ancient Greek mathematicians studied sequences to understand patterns and ratios
Sequences are used in computer science for algorithms and data structures
