Introduction

If there is a list of numbers, for example, 3, 6, 9, 12, … can you find more numbers that belong to this set?

What about 1, 5, 12, 21, 43, 59, 60, ….? Can you guess what number comes next? Why?

The same question for the list of numbers 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, …? Can you recognize any pattern that helps you find which number comes next?

This tutorial focuses on sequences - mathematical objects that represent lists of numbers and/or items that have a kind of relationship with each other. The tutorial provides an introduction to the sequence concept and related ones, with some general features that we elaborate on further in the next tutorials in this chapter of Math.
