New Topic: Sequences, MiA Higher Ch4
By the end of this topic you will:
• know the terms: sequence, nth term, limit as n tends to
• use un notation for the nth term of a sequence
• define and interpret recurrence relations of the form un+1 = mun + c
• know condition for limit of sequence from recurrence relation to exist
• find (where possible) and interpret the limit of a sequence resulting from a recurrence relation in a mathematical model
