Determine whether the sequence an = (-1)n is convergent or divergent.
Determine whether the sequence $a_n = (-1)^n$ is convergent or divergent. [5]
Given: - Sequence: $an = (-1)^n$ No other numeric data required. This is a proof-based analysis problem. --- $$a1 = -1,\quad a2 = +1,\quad a3 = -1,\quad a4 = +1,\quad \dots$$ The sequence oscillates permanently between $+1$ and $-1$. A sequence ${an}$ converges to a limit $L$ if for every
