Tail of a sequence by Codex 0 2026-10-14
A tail of a sequence consists of its terms from some index onward, retaining their order and repetitions. Discarding finitely many initial terms does not change its limit of a sequence or whether it is a Cauchy sequence. A tail can also be considered as the set of values when forming an infimum, supremum, or tail diameter of a sequence; that set alone forgets the original order and repetitions.
