In mathematics, a sequence is an ordered set of mathematical objects (most notably a list of numbers).
In some cases, the sequence tends towards a limit, in which case the limit is denoted using the symbol  (as in ), and the sequence is said to be convergent, otherwise it is divergent.
In a convergent sequence, the absolute difference between the value of the current term and the limit, , will decrease towards 0, as the sequence progresses.
Formal Definition
We call  the limit of the sequence  if the following condition holds:
For each real number , there exists a natural number  such that, for every natural number , we have .
In other words, for every measure of distance , we can find an infinite number of terms of the sequence that are closer than  to the limit.
We say that the sequence  converges to or tends to the limit , which we write as  or .
The limit can be also shown to be unique.
Leucippus, Democritus, Antiphon, Eudoxus and Archimedes developed the method of exhaustion, which uses an infinite sequence of approximations to determine an area or a volume.
Archimedes succeeded in summing what is now called a geometric series.
Newton dealt with series in his works on Analysis with infinite series (written in 1669, circulated in manuscript, published in 1711), Method of fluxions and infinite series (written in 1671, published in English translation in 1736, Latin original published much later) and Tractatus de Quadratura Curvarum (written in 1693, published in 1704 as an Appendix to his Optiks).
In the latter work, Newton considers the binomial expansion of (x+o)n, which he then linearizes by taking the limits as o tends to 0.
In the 18th century, mathematicians like Euler succeeded in summing some divergent series by stopping at the right moment; they did not much care whether a limit existed, as long as it could be calculated.
At the end of the century, Lagrange in his Théorie des fonctions analytiques (1797) opined that the lack of rigour precluded further development in calculus.
Gauss in his etude of hypergeometric series (1813) for the first time rigorously investigated under which conditions a series converged to a limit.
The modern definition of a limit (for any ε there exists an index N so that ...) was given by Bernhard Bolzano (Der binomische Lehrsatz, Prague 1816, little noticed at the time), and by Karl Weierstraß in the 1870s.

The random walk hypothesis is a financial theory.
It says that stock market prices change according to a random walk, Price changes are random and cannot be predicted.
The concept can be traced to French broker Jules Regnault who published a book in 1863.
It can also be traced to French mathematician Louis Bachelier.
His  Ph.D. dissertation, "The Theory of Speculation" (1900), had comments on the subject.
The same ideas were later worked on by MIT Sloan School of Management professor Paul Cootner in his 1964 book The Random Character of Stock Market Prices.
The term was was made popular by the 1973 book, A Random Walk Down Wall Street, by Burton Malkiel.
It was used earlier in Eugene Fama's 1965 article "Random Walks In Stock Market Prices", which was a less technical version of his Ph.D. thesis.
The theory that stock prices move randomly was earlier said by Maurice Kendall in his 1953 paper, The Analysis of Economic Time Series, Part 1: Prices.

Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), or Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), or Islamic State, (IS) is a Wahhabi jihadist militant and terrorist group.
In Arabic it is often called "Daesh".
It operates in Libya, Nigeria, Syria and a small part of northern Iraq.
It is influenced by the Wahhabi Sect of Islam.
It claims the status of independent state for the territories under its control in Iraq, Libya, Nigeria, and Syria.
It is opposed to Shiism and has been described as "Shiaphobic".
The group was started in the early years of the Iraq War and associated itself with Al-Qaeda in 2004.
ISIL was composed of different insurgent groups.
Its aim was to establish a caliphate in the Sunni majority regions of Iraq, later expanding this to include Syria.
In February 2014, after an eight-month power struggle, Al-Qaeda  cut all ties with ISIL.
ISIL is millenarianist, meaning it believes that society is going to change a lot, and everything we know will end soon.
The group recruits new members by promising them sex slaves or cheap marriages.
At the height of the Iraq War, ISIL was in the Iraqi provinces of Al Anbar, Ninawa, Kirkuk, most of Salah ad Din, parts of Babil, Diyala and Baghdad.
It claimed Baqubah as its capital.
In the ongoing Syrian Civil War, the group has a large presence in the Syrian governorates of Ar-Raqqa, Idlib and Aleppo.
The group has attacked government and military targets.
It has claimed responsibility for attacks that killed thousands of Iraqi civilians.
During the time coalition forces were present in Iraq, the group suffered some setbacks.
By 2012, it was thought to have regained most of its strength and more than doubled the number of its members to about 2,500.
In 2013, a letter and an audio recording of Ayman al-Zawahiri, the leader of al-Qaeda, was leaked to Al Jazeera.
In it, al-Zawahiri disbanded the Syrian faction of ISIL.
The group's leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, opposed this ruling on the basis of Islamic law.
The group has since continued to operate in Syria.
Starting in April 2013, it made rapid military gains in large parts of Northern Syria, where the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights described them as "the strongest group".
They have sought publicity by releasing videos of the decapitation (beheading) of journalists and other prisoners of war mainly done by member Jihadi John.
He was killed in November 2015.
Worldwide Caliphate
In June 2014, it announced a worldwide caliphate.
In 2014, ISIL successfully fought in a large-scale offensive in Iraq.
After this offensive, ISIL is reported to have seized control of most of Mosul, the second biggest city in Iraq, its surrounding Nineveh province, and the city of Fallujah.
In the spring of 2015 ISIL fought for control of Tikrit, the administrative center of the Salah ad Din Governorate.
In spring of 2016 the Army of Iraq took back Fallujah.
At the end of 2016 the army took back Ramadi in Al Anbar Province, and in early 2017 Iraqi government forces retook Mosul.
In October, Raqqa, the former headquarters, fell.
The 2014 film The Blue Man, which is related to The New York Times article titled "Uncovering Iraq's Horrors in Desert Graves" written by John F. Burns, also mentions mass killings of Shia Muslims by the Islamic State between 2003 to 2006.

Toussaint L'Ouverture (c. 1743–1803),  He was the leader of the Haitian Revolution.
Toussaint L’Ouverture started his military career as a leader of the 1791 slave rebellion in Saint-Domingue, which was a French colony.
When he did this he was a free black man (not a slave).
Toussaint gradually took control over the whole island (also the Spanish part called Santo Domingo).
When he had power for years, he tried to improve the security and economy on Saint-Domingue.
He also restored the plantation system, by using paid workers.
Besides of all this, he had a very large army.
Little is known for sure about Toussaint L’Ouverture’s early life, because sources disagree.
The first records of his life were from his son, Isaac L’Ouverture.
Most histories say Toussaint’s father was Gaou Guinou, who was a son of King Arrada.
King Arrada, also called Great Arrada, was the king of what is now Benin.
His mother was Gaou Guinou’s second wife.
Most sources tell us that Toussaint L’Ouverture was born on the plantation of Bréda at Haute de Cap in Saint Domingue.
All Saints' Day is likely, because his name "Toussaint" means "all saints'" in French.
When the Haitian Revolution started he was probably about 50 years old.
Different sources give birth dates from 1739 until 1746.
When he was a child he was small and weak.
But as an adult he was known by his great stamina and horse-riding skills.
Most sources tell us that Toussaint was well-educated by his godfather, Pierre Baptiste.
By age 20 he could speak three languages, French, Creole and some Latin.
He also had a knowledge of medicinal plants.
Toussaint married Suzanne Simone Baptiste in 1782.
Suzanne was probably his cousin.
People think that he had 16 children, and that 11 of them had already died before he did himself.
His oldest son was adopted.
The two sons born out of his marriage with Suzanne were Isaac and Saint-Jean.
Slavery, freedom and working life
Toussaint was known for being a slave until the start of the Revolution.
He was free at the age of 33.
When he was free, he became wealthier and began to have more property.
He made a good amount of money in the Revolution and he was the owner of several properties.
During his life Toussaint L’Ouverture was considered to be a Roman Catholic.
The Vodou spirituality was also often used on the Bréda plantation.
It was combined with Catholicism.
It is not known if Toussaint had anything to do with these religions and spiritualties.
When he was the ruler of Saint-Domingue, he said he did not.
L'ouverture was a Freemason.
The historians thought this, because he used a Masonic symbol in his signature.
Haitian revolution
Saint-Domingue (later Haiti) was the world's biggest sugar producer and provided sugar for many countries.
It had more than 800 sugar plantations.
With a few rich families and 500,000 African slaves on Haiti, the slaves totally outnumbered everyone else.
To stop the slaves from revolting and taking the power, the French people used terrible methods to keep the slaves powerless.
The Haitian Revolution began when the French people who owned the plantations wanted independence.
But the slaves wanted something else; they wanted freedom.
In 1791, about 100,00 slaves revolted.
They burned all the sugarcane in the fields and killed hundreds of slave owners.
In this early stage, Toussaint L’Ouverture did not join yet.
But after some weeks, he took his family to the Spanish colony of Santo Domingo to keep them safe and helped the supervisors of the plantation of Bréda to leave the island, if we believe surviving documents.
Toussaint L’Ouverture was one of the leaders of the rebellion.
He took part in talks about strategy.
He had contact with the Spanish people who supported the rebellion, because they provided food to the slaves who were in revolt.
In 1801 he moved to Santo Domingo and took control of the territory.
He freed the slaves and wrote a constitution for Santo Domingo.
When Napoleon Bonaparte took power in France, he took back the rich sugar plantations on Saint-Domingue.
In January of the year 1802, French soldiers landed in Saint-Domingue in order to get rid of Toussaint L’Ouverture.
When Napoleon Bonaparte told Toussaint that he wanted Saint-Domingue back, Toussaint said that he would get it back if he would end slavery on Saint-Domingue forever.
Napoleon agreed and took Toussaint with him to Paris to discuss the deal further.
Despite the deal, the French people later accused L'Ouverture of planning another revolt against the plantation owners.
He was sent to jail in the French Alps.
The jail was called Fort-de-Joux.
Ten months after he was sent to jail, on the 7th of April 1803, Toussaint died.
After his death, slavery in Haiti was started again, but was never to be the same.
Toussaint had left an impression about slavery, and the slaves continued to fight the rich French plantation owners in a brutal way.
This resulted in another revolution.
Toussaint’s General, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, took up Toussaint's job in the revolution after he died.
Dessalines became the first Emperor of Haiti.
Later in the revolt he was attacked and he died.
But before Dessalines died, yellow fever killed thousands of French people trying to calm the revolt in Haiti.
On January 1, 1804, Saint-Domingue was renamed Haiti and was declared independent by Dessalines.
In this way, Haiti became the first black republic in the world, and the first colony to free itself from European rule.

Knott's Berry Farm is a theme park in Buena Park, California that is owned by Cedar Fair Entertainment Company.
Since the theme park was purchased by Cedar Fair, the number of people who visited the park has increased.
According to the 2013 Global Attractions Attendance Report, Knott's Berry Farm is the 13th most visited theme park in North America.
The park has 40 rides, including roller coasters, family rides, children's rides, water rides, and historical rides, and there are plans to make the park bigger in the future.
The theme park sits on what used to be a berry farm that was built by Walter Knott, Cordelia Knott, and their family.
Starting around 1920, the family started selling berries, berry preserves, and pies from a roadside stand along a highway.
In 1934, the Knotts started selling fried chicken dinners inside a tea room that is on the farm.
They later built shops and other attractions to entertain visitors.
In 1940, Walter Knott built a ghost town on the farm, and added other attractions over many  years.
In 1968, Knott's Berry Farm started to charge people to visit the park.
In 1983, the park added Camp Snoopy.
In the 1990s, the Knott children sold the family business after Walter and Cordelia Knott died.
The theme park was sold to Cedar Fair and the food business was sold to ConAgra Foods, which was later sold to The J.M. Smucker Company.
Cedar Fair continued to make the park bigger in 1999 by adding Knott's Soak City.
They also added more rides to Knott's Berry Farm.
The idea of an amusement park really picked up in the 1950s when Walter Knott opened a "summer-long county fair".
In 1968, for the first time, an admission price was required to get into the park, originally set at 25 cents.
The Calico log ride was added in 1969.
On April 12, 1974, Cordelia Knott died, and Walter turned his attention toward political causes.
Sky Tower was built to support two attractions, the Parachute Sky Jump (now closed) and the Sky Cabin.
Parachute Sky Jump boarded one or two standing riders looking forward to the thrill of the drop into baskets beneath a faux parachute canopy.
From the top, eight arms supported the vertical cable tracks of wire rope which lifted the baskets.
The Sky Cabin ringed the support pole with a single floor of seats that is surrounded behind windows.
The Sky Cabin ring revolves slowly as it rises to the top and back offering a pleasantly changing view.. Sky Cabin is very sensitive to weather and passenger motion, such as walking, which is not allowed during the trip.
During winds 25 mph+ or rain it is closed.
When built, Sky Tower was the tallest structure in Orange County (a distinction now held by nearby WindSeeker.)
The illuminated "K" in logo script atop the Sky Tower was designated a landmark which prevented Knott's plan of changing the foundation to support WindSeeker.
Corkscrew debuted in 1975 as the first modern-day roller coaster to perform a 360-degree inverting element, twice.
It was designed by Arrow Development.
Corkscrew is still operating to this day, but was sold and moved in 1989 to Silverwood in Athol, Idaho.
Montezooma's Revenge was later opened in 1978 and remains in operation at Knott's Berry Farm.
Leopoldo Fortunato Galtieri Castelli (15 July 1926 12 January 2003) was an Argentine general and politician.
He served as President of Argentina from 22 December 1981 to 18 June 1982.
This was during the last military dictatorship (known officially as the National Reorganization Process).
He was removed from power soon after the British retook the Falkland Islands, whose invasion he had ordered.
Galtieri was born in the Buenos Aires area.
He entered the Argentine Army, and studied engineering.
He was a skilled engineer, and he rose quickly through the ranks of the Argentine military.
In 1975, he became the head of the Engineering Corps of the army.
When Jorge Rafael Videla took power a year later, Galtieri supported him.
Videla was a brutal dictator, and thousands of people were murdered under his rule.
In 1981, Videla stepped down.
Galtieri took power late that year after removing Roberto Viola in a coup d'état.
Although not as brutal as Videla, he continued the "Dirty War."
The United States supported Galtieri.
He was a strong anti-communist.
Because of this, the United States saw Argentina as an ally against the Soviet Union in the Cold War.
Soon after Galtieri took power, the Argentine economy was about to fall apart.
Inflation, the rate at which new money is put into the economy, was as high as 130%.
Unemployment was very high, and the state oil company lost six billion dollars in a matter of months.
This is the worst loss of money any corporation has had in all of history.
Galtieri allowed people to disagree with him more than the leaders who came before him.
Protests against his dictatorship became common.
Invasion of the Falkland Islands
By 1982, Galtieri's popularity was low.
He wanted more people to support him.
He also wanted to increase Argentine patriotism.
For many years, Argentina had said the Falkland Islands (a British territory) was actually theirs.
The British did not see Argentina as a war threat, and didn't heavily defend the islands.
With Jorge Anaya, one of the other members of the junta, Galtieri thought of a plan to take over the islands.
Galtieri ordered the Argentine military to invade the islands.
After bombarding the capital city, Port Stanley, Argentina forced the British Governor of the islands, Rex Hunt, to surrender.
Galtieri became very popular after the invasion, and huge celebrations were held in Buenos Aires.
His regime seemed to be very strong.
But Galtieri had badly misread what British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher would do.
He also believed he would have the support of the United States.
However, the United States (and most of the world) supported Britain.
The British sent their armed forces to the islands.
