Arithmetic Progression

An arithmetic progression, also known as an arithmetic sequence, is a sequence of n numbers {a_0+kd}_(k=0)^(n-1) such that the differences between successive terms is a constant d.

An arithmetic progression can be generated in the Wolfram Language using the command Range [a_1, a_n, d].
