convergent sequence
A sequence with a limit that is a real number. For example, the sequence 5.1, 5.01, 5.001, 5.0001, . . . has limit 5, so the sequence converges to 5. On the other hand, the sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, . . . has a limit of infinity (∞) which is not a real number, so the sequence is said to not converge, or a divergent sequence.
