natural numbers

The countable numbers are called Natural Numbers. Therefore 1 is the smallest or least of all natural numbers. The highest natural number cannot be said because Natural numbers are infinite. The se..

Summary - A sentence is called a statement if it can be adjudged as true or false. Every statement is a sentence, but a sentence may or may not be a statement. A statement involving natural number n is generally denoted by P(n). Principle of mathematical induction states that if..

Let n N and P(n) denote a certain statement or formula or theorem. Then P(n) holds good for every natural number n if (i) it holds for n = 1 and (ii) it holds for n = k+1 whenever it holds for n =..

Conclusion - Let n N and P(n) denote a certain statement or formula or theorem. Then P(n) holds good for every natural number n if (i) it holds for n = 1 and (ii) it holds for n = k+1 whenever it holds for n =..

The set of whole numbers is the set of natural numbers along with zero. so W = the set of whole numbers = 0,1,2,3,............ so Zero is the least number of the set of Whole numbers. As the whole numbers is an infinite set..

The sets of numbers which every student must remember are: The set of natural numbers, The set of whole numbers, The set of integers, The set of rational numbers, The set of irrational numbers, Set of Real Numbers, Consecut..

A set of numbers arranged in a definite order according to some definite rule is called a sequence. A sequence is a function whose domain is the set N of natural numbers. Indicated sum of the terms in a sequence is called a series. The result of performing ..

Let n N and P(n) denote a certain statement or formula or theorem. Then P(n) holds good for every natural number n if (i) it holds for n = 1 and (ii) it holds for n = k+1 whenever it holds for n = k...
