SEQUENCE

A sequence is a finite or infinite list of numbers

following a certain pattern.

SERIES

A series is a sum of elements in the

corresponding sequence.
PROGRESSION

A progression is a sequence of numbers whose

each term is related to its predecessor or
successor by a uniform law.

ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION

An Arithmetic Progression is a sequence of

numbers in which we get each term can be
obtained by adding a certain quantity to its
preceding term.
