Intro to Sequences - 11 & Quiz 2

The ideas of sequences as infinite lists of numbers isn’t entirely new to us; we’ve encountered them already in the course. As we move into Part 2 of the course, we’ll begin with a careful discussion of sequences. This gives us the ability to define the notion of convergence rigorously, and to prove some properties about convergence of sequences.
