    Mathematical induction is a method of proof typically used to establish that a given statement holds for all natural numbers. The principle of mathematical induction requires first showing that the statement holds true for the base case, usually n = 1. It then assumes that the statement holds true for some arbitrary natural number k. Finally, it must be shown that the statement also holds true for k + 1, relying on the inductive hypothesis that the statement is true for k.
