**Mathematical Induction:** A powerful proof technique to show a statement holds for all natural numbers.
Ex: Prove 1+2+...+n = n(n+1)/2 for all n>=1.
Pro-Tip: Think of it like a chain of dominoes! If the first falls & each falling domino knocks the next, they all fall.

Alright, future engineers!
**Proof by Induction:** Show P(1) is true, then assume P(k) true to prove P(k+1) true.
Ex: Proving `1+...+n = n(n+1)/2`.
Pro-Tip: Think of it like dominoes! Knock down the first, then show if one falls, the next does too.
