Function: Returns the lowest-degree polynomial that generates the sequence expressed by the values in a list or range of specified cells. If we evaluate the polynomial at 2, for example, the result will be the second value in our list.

Syntax: sequence(start cell:end cell[,start cell:end cell][,variable])

Example: To determine a polynomial for the sequence values in cells B1 through B4 and a variable of “y”, and input the result in cell A1:

• “x” is the default variable when you do not specify one above.
