Hi,
Can someone please clarify a nagging issue:
For a sequence to be an arithmetic sequence, does the different between the units have to be constant? To elaborate, are all three examples below considered arithmetic sequences?
-[2,4,6,8] = difference of 2
-[3,9,81...] = all the units are squared but the differences are not constant
-[2, 5, 9, 14]= the difference is 2+1 so (5= 2 + 3), (9=3+4), (14 = 9 + 5)
