Statement

Suppose $(z_{n})$ is a sequence of (possibly repeating) complex numbers that does not cluster in $\mathbb {C}$: in other words, $|z_{n}|\to \infty$ if the sequence is infinite. Then, there exists an entire function <math<f:\mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}</math> such that for any $z\in \mathbb {C}$, the order of zero for $f$ at $z$ equals the number of times $z$ occurs in the sequence $(z_{n})$.
