Strictly Increasing Sequence: Also known as
A strictly increasing sequence is also referred to as ascending or strictly ascending.

Some sources refer to a strictly increasing sequence as an increasing sequence, and refer to an increasing sequence which is not strictly increasing as a monotonic increasing sequence to distinguish it from a strictly increasing sequence.

That is, such that monotonic is being used to mean an increasing sequence in which consecutive terms may be equal.

does not endorse this viewpoint.
