An arithmetic sequence in one in which consecutive terms differ by a fixed amount,or equivalently, the next term can found by adding a fixed amount to the previous term.
Example of an arithmetic sequence: 2 7 12 17 22 ... Here the the fixed amount is 5.
I suppose any other type of sequence could be called non arithmetic, but I have not heard that expression before.
Another useful kind of sequence is called geometric which is analogous to arithmetic, but multiplication is used instead of addition, i.e. to get the next term, multiply the previous term by some fixed amount.
Example: 2 6 18 54 162 ... Here the muliplier is 3.

Non example arithmetic sequence?
"A shark peeling a banana before eating it" is a non example - of most anything!
What is the difference between an arithmetic series and an arithmetic sequence?
An arithmetic sequence is a list of numbers which follow a rule. A series is the sum of a sequence of numbers.
Is 1 11 an arithmetic sequence?
Any pair of numbers will always form an arithmetic sequence.
What Find the 90th term of the arithmetic sequence 16,21,26?
The 90th term of the arithmetic sequence is 461
Is The Fibonacci sequence arithmetic?
No, the Fibonacci sequence is not an arithmetic because the difference between consecutive terms is not constant
What is the difference between a geometric sequence and arithmetic sequence?
Goemetric sequence : A sequence is a goemetric sequence if an/an-1is the same non-zero number for all natural numbers greater than 1. Arithmetic sequence : A sequence {an} is an arithmetic sequence if an-an-1 is the same number for all natural numbers greater than 1.
What is the history of a arithmetic sequence?

What is a infinite arithmetic sequence?
It is an arithmetic sequence for which the index goes on and on (and on).
Non example arithmetic sequence?
"A shark peeling a banana before eating it" is a non example - of most anything!
What is the difference between an arithmetic series and an arithmetic sequence?
An arithmetic sequence is a list of numbers which follow a rule. A series is the sum of a sequence of numbers.
What is the type of sequence where the terms in the sequence are found by adding the same number each time?
That's an arithmetic sequence.

Does the terms of an arithmetic sequence have a common ratio?
No. An 'arithmetic' sequence is defined as one with a common difference.A sequence with a common ratio is a geometricone.
