Recurrence relation

In mathematics and computer science, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the n {\displaystyle n} th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only k {\displaystyle k} previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter k {\displaystyle k} that is independent of n…
