Geometric Progression in C
In mathematics, a geometric progression (also inaccurately known as a geometric series) is a sequence of numbers such that the quotient of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant called the common ratio of the sequence.
a geometric sequence can be written as:
aq0=a, aq1=aq, aq2, q3, ... where q ≠ 0, q is the common ratio and a is a scale factor.
A sequence with a common ratio of 2 and a scale factor of 1 is
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32...
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32...
A sequence with a common ratio of -1 and a scale factor of 5 is
5, -5, 5, -5, 5, -5,...
5, -5, 5, -5, 5, -5,...
