Point being, you must include the starting number in any recursive definition. Recursive Definition. 1  1) An initial condition that tells where the sequence starts.  2) A recursion formula that tells how any term of the sequence relates to the preceding term.
A recursive formula designates the starting term, a1, and the n th term of the sequence, an, as an expression containing the previous term (the term before it), an-1. The process of recursion can be thought of as climbing a ladder.
