  2. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    Applying the f function k times to the number n = 2 k a + b will give the result 3 c a + d, where d is the result of applying the f function k times to b, and c is how many increases were encountered during that sequence. For example, for 2 5 a + 1 there are 3 increases as 1 iterates to 2, 1, 2, 1, and finally to 2 so the result is 3 3 a + 2 ...

  3. Sequence diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_diagram

    A system sequence diagram should be done for the main success scenario of the use case, and frequent or complex alternative scenarios. There are two kinds of sequence diagrams: Sequence Diagram (SD): A regular version of sequence diagram describes how the system operates, and every object within a system is described specifically.

  4. Geometric series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_series

    The geometric series is an infinite series derived from a special type of sequence called a geometric progression.This means that it is the sum of infinitely many terms of geometric progression: starting from the initial term , and the next one being the initial term multiplied by a constant number known as the common ratio .

  5. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

    A geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a mathematical sequence of non-zero numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed number called the common ratio. For example, the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ... is a geometric progression with a common ratio of 3.

  6. Look-and-say sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Look-and-say_sequence

    For example: 1 is read off as "one 1" or 11. 11 is read off as "two 1s" or 21. 21 is read off as "one 2, one 1" or 1211. 1211 is read off as "one 1, one 2, two 1s" or 111221. 111221 is read off as "three 1s, two 2s, one 1" or 312211. The look-and-say sequence was analyzed by John Conway [1] after he was introduced to it by one of his students ...

  7. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

    Thus the first term to appear between ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ and ⁠ 2 / 5 ⁠ is ⁠ 3 / 8 ⁠, which appears in F 8. The total number of Farey neighbour pairs in F n is 2| F n | − 3. The Stern–Brocot tree is a data structure showing how the sequence is built up from 0 (= ⁠ 0 / 1 ⁠) and 1 (= ⁠ 1 / 1 ⁠), by taking successive mediants.

  8. Five-term exact sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-term_exact_sequence

    The five-term exact sequence can be extended at the cost of making one of the terms less explicit. The seven-term exact sequence is 0 → E 2 1,0 → H 1 (A) → E 2 0,1 → E 2 2,0 → Ker(H 2 (A) → E 2 0,2) → E 2 1,1 → E 2 3,0. This sequence does not immediately extend with a map to H 3 (A).

  9. Gijswijt's sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gijswijt's_sequence

    The 2 in the third term represents the length 2 of the block of 1s that are in the first and second term. At this point, the sequence decreases for the first time: The 1 in the fourth term represents the length 1 of the block of 2s in the 3rd term, as well as the length 1 of the block "1, 2" spanning the second and third term.
