The sequence 1, 2, 3, 8, 15, 48, 105, 384, 945, 3840, ... captures a captivating pattern that intertwines concepts from Specialist Mathematics, including integration by parts and reduction formulae. This sequence serves as a rich context for exploration and discovery, and a simple yet rich context for engaging with pseudocode. In this session attendees will explore this interesting sequence and learn how to write a TI-Nspire function and a program to generate this and related sequences. Attendees are encouraged to bring a TI-Nspire CAS calculator or a laptop with TI-Nspire CAS software.

Key takeaways:
