Chapter 9: Sequences and Series

In this chapter we study functions whose inputs are natural numbers, rather than an interval of the real line. We will also learn techniques for summing a sequence and for finding powers of a binomial. These skills are used in discrete mathematics, which has applications in finance, computer science, and many other fields.
