Tn = 256^2-n

term 1 = 256 to the power of( 2 - 1) = 256
term 2 = 256 to the power of( 2 - 2) = 1
term 3 = 256 to the power of( 2 - 3) = 1/256
term 4 = 256 to the power of( 2 - 4) = 1/65536
term 5 = 256 to the power of( 2 - 5) = 1/16777216

therefore I am incorrect.

I can't remember the proper way to express it for some reason, maybe I will work backwards.

term 1 = 256 = 256^((1/2)^1-1)
term 2 = 16 = 256^((1/2)^2-1)
term 3 = 4 = 256^((1/2)^3-1)
term 4 = 2 = 256^((1/2)^4-1)

therefore
term 5 = 256^((1/2)^5-1) = 2^0.5

It's just the nth term of a sequence T.

no, Tn means the nth term of whatever sequence and Sn means the sumof all the temrs so far in the sequnce.
