bookImplementing Series in Python

In mathematics, series are sequences of numbers that follow a specific pattern. Two fundamental types of series are:

  • Arithmetic series, where each term increases by a constant difference;
  • Geometric series, where each term is multiplied by a constant ratio.

In Python, we can generate, manipulate, and visualize these series efficiently using lists and Matplotlib.

Defining an Arithmetic Series

An arithmetic series follows the formula:

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]
copy

Defining a Geometric Series

A geometric series follows the formula:

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
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]
copy

Plotting the Series in Python

To visualize the sequences, we plot them using matplotlib.
