Implementing Series in Python

Stryg for at vise menuen

In Python, you can efficiently generate, manipulate, and visualize arithmetic and geometric series using lists and Matplotlib. These tools make it easy to model numerical patterns and analyze their behavior.

Defining an Arithmetic Series

An arithmetic series follows the formula:

def arithmetic_series(n, a, d):
    return [a + i * d for i in range(n)]

Where:

  • a is the first term;
  • d is the common difference;
  • n is the number of terms;
  • A list comprehension generates n terms of the sequence;
  • Each term increases by d from the previous term.

Example Calculation:

1234
def arithmetic_series(n, a, d): return [a + i * d for i in range(n)] print(arithmetic_series(5, 2, 3)) # Output: [2, 5, 8, 11, 14]

Defining a Geometric Series

A geometric series follows the formula:

def geometric_series(n, a, r):
    return [a * r**i for i in range(n)]

Where:

  • a is the first term;
  • r is the common ratio (each term is multiplied by r from the previous term);
  • n is the number of terms.

Example Calculation:

1234
def geometric_series(n, a, r): return [a * r**i for i in range(n)] print(geometric_series(5, 2, 2)) # Output: [2, 4, 8, 16, 32]

Plotting the Series in Python

To visualize the sequences, we plot them using matplotlib.
