* In mathematics, an arithmetic progression (AP) or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers

* such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant. Difference here means the

* second minus the first. For instance, the sequence 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, . . . is an arithmetic

* progression with common difference of 2.
