Arithmetic Progression
Arithmetic Progression (AP) is a mathematical series in which the difference between any two subsequent numbers is a fixed value.
For example, the natural number sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,... is an AP because the difference between two consecutive terms (say 1 and 2) is equal to one (2 -1). Even when dealing with odd and even numbers, the common difference between two consecutive words will be equal to 2.
In simpler words, an arithmetic progression is a collection of integers where each term is resulted by adding a fixed number to the preceding term apart from the first term.
For eg:- 4,6,8,10,12,14,16
We can notice Arithmetic Progression in our day-to-day lives too, for eg:- the number of days in a week, stacking chairs, etc.
