Convergent sequence
Definition
A real sequence is convergent if it converges to some real number . Here convergence is in the sense of the limit of a sequence.
Remarks
The sequences and are convergent, with limits and . The constant sequence converges to . A sequence that is not convergent is a divergent sequence.
Explanations
L1 human
A convergent sequence is a sequence that has a limit. Its terms settle down near one real number.
