Abstract
In Chap. 8 we showed that a function f(x) which may be differentiated any number of times can usually be expanded in an infinite series in powers of x, i.e.
The advantage of the expansion is that each term can be differentiated and integrated easily and, in particular, it is useful in obtaining an approximate value of the function by taking the first few terms.
