Number Sequence Calculator
Nth term and sum of an arithmetic sequence.
Worth Knowing
This handles arithmetic sequences, where each term increases by a fixed common difference. Its neat result is the sum formula — average the first and last terms and multiply by how many there are — the shortcut a young Gauss reputedly used to add 1 through 100 in seconds. Arithmetic sequences model anything that grows by equal steps, from stacked seating rows to simple-interest balances, in contrast to geometric sequences that grow by a fixed ratio.
