Arithmetic sequences
each term is found by a difference in either addition or subtraction (6n-4)
Geometric sequences
each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a ratio, all nth terms start with the first number in the sequence (2 x 3 ^n-1)
Recursive Sequence
each term is obtained from previous terms (can be numbers, letters or shapes)
