Assignment 1

This document outlines an assignment on mathematical sequences and series. It includes: 1) Defining sequence types like convergent, divergent, bounded, and providing examples. 2) Proving that convergent sequences are bounded and discussing if the converse is true. 3) Defining infinite series types like convergent, divergent, and oscillating series. 4) Proving that if a series has only positive terms, the limit of the terms must be 0 as n approaches infinity. 5) Testing several series for convergence. 6) Defining alternating series and stating Leibnitz's test for convergence of alternating series. 7) Discussing the convergence of several alternating series.
