Sample output:
Enter the first number of the A.P. series: 1
Enter the total numbers in the A.P. series: 5
Enter the common difference of A.P. series: 3
Sum of the series: 1 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 13 = 35
Definition of arithmetic progression (A.P.):
A series of numbers in which difference of any two consecutive numbers is always a same number that is constant. This constant is called as common difference.
Example of A.P. series:
5 10 15 20 25 …
Here common difference is 5 since difference of any two consecutive numbers for example 20 – 15 or 25 -20 is 5.
Sum of A.P. series:
Sn = n/2(2a + (n-1) d)
Tn term of A.P. series:
Tn = a + (n-1) d
