Key points: the definition of sequences Difficult points: some relevant terms 本小节重点掌握 1. 以正整数集为定义域的函数称为序列。 2. 除非另有说明，本章研究的序列都假定具有实的项或复的项。 课下自学课文7-C Monotonic sequences of real numbers Monotonically decreasing function Monotonically increasing function 作业： P63 2: (3),(8) P64 3: (1) 谢 谢！ New Words Expressions: assume 假定 sequence 序列，数列 converge 收敛 series 级数，序列 diverge 发散 subscript 下标 imaginary part 虚部 succession 连贯性 imply 蕴含，推出 successor 后继 recursion formula 递推公式 2.7 序列及其极限 Sequences and Their Limits In everyday usage of the English language, the words “sequence” and “series” are synonyms, and they are used to suggest a succession of things or events arranged in some order. 7-A The definition of sequences 在日常英语中，单词“sequence” 和 “series” 是同义词，用以表示按某种次序排列的一串东西或事件。 In mathematics these words have special technical meanings. 在数学中这些单词有特殊的专业含义。 The word “sequence” is employed as in the common use of the term to convey the idea of a set of things arranged in order, but the word “series” is used in a somewhat different sense. 像通常用法一样，术语 “sequence” 用以表达按次序排列的一串东西的意思，但是 “series” 一词则用于表示别的意思（级数）。 The concept of a sequence will be discussed in this section, and series will be defined in section 11. 序列的概念在本节讨论，级数的概念将在第11节定义。 If for every positive integer n there is associated a real or complex number an, then the ordered set a1 , a2, …, an ,… is said to define an infinite sequence. 如果对每一个正整数 n都有一个实数或复数an与之对应, 则有序集a1 , a2, …, an ,… 称为一个无穷序列. The important thing here is that each member of the set has been labeled with an integer so that we may speak of the first term a1, the second term a2, and, in general, the nth term an. 这里重要的是集合中的每一个元素都由一个整数标 记，因此我们可以说第一项 , 第二项, 一般的，第n项 Each term has a successor and hence there is no “last ” term. 每一项都有下面的一项，因此没有最后一项
