Ch2.1 Patterns and Iterations

This document discusses patterns, iterations, and inductive reasoning. It introduces common iterative patterns like counting up by ones, threes, or fours. It defines iteration as a process that is repeated, and shows an iteration diagram demonstrating how each repetition in the sequence is calculated based on the input and previous output. It also provides an example of using iteration to model depreciation rates over time, where an item loses 30% of its value each year.
