1. Find an example of each of the following.
(a) A convergent sequence of rational numbers having an irrational limit.
(b) A convergent sequence of irrational numbers having a rational limit.
2. Given a sequence (sn) and given k ∈ N, let (tn) be the sequence defined by tn= sn+ k. That is, the terms in (tn) are the same as the terms in (sn) after the first k terms have been skipped. Prove that (tn) converges iff (sn) converges, and if they converge, show that lim tn= lim sn. Thus the convergence of a sequence is not affected by omitting (or changing) a finite number of terms.
