Peer reviewedStrangman, Kathryn Besic – Mathematics Teacher, 1974
Ways of finding the sums of some interesting sequences of numbers are discussed. Finding the patterns creates a challenge, but the patterns are not too difficult for average pupils to discover. Mathematical induction can then be used to prove the formulas. (LS)
