Let us denote the first term by 't1', second term by 't2' and so on.

So, clearly, the numbers are not in G.P. or Geometric Progression as there is no common ratio.

Again,

So, clearly, the numbers are not in A.P. or Arithmetic Progression as there is no common difference.

Hence the numbers are neither in A.P. nor in G.P.
