Abstract
As we saw in the last chapter, when we graph several terms of a sequence, certain behavior may appear. We may become convinced, for whatever reason, that the sequence is unbounded. Or, we may believe that the sequence is bounded and we may even notice the sequence moving toward a particular horizontal line. But how do we check that what we believe is happening really is happening?
