Oh, it's fun as stuff, omg you will love it when you get to it !!

it's kinda like epsilon - delta proofs, i love it!!


but if you are not up to it, do u know WHY e^x can be expanded like that? I think that is important to know, maybe you can try prove it :P

Our professor didn't discuss why, but I remember in physics our professor was saying it's from the Taylor series, is that true? Then again he didn't really explain what a Taylor series is.

TrueTears:
if f has a power series expansion: then the maclaruin series is just a special case of it: namely, centered at 0. (a = 0)

but that's not the slick part, the coolest part is the relationship between the coefficients of the power series f(x) and the derivatives of f(x), thats the part i love the most!!

Wait until you get to Laurent series in complex analysis and its relation to residues and contour integrals. That's pretty cool ;)

Isn't it just a matter of definition?
