  3. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem

    Taylor's theorem is named after the mathematician Brook Taylor, who stated a version of it in 1715, [2] although an earlier version of the result was already mentioned in 1671 by James Gregory. [3] Taylor's theorem is taught in introductory-level calculus courses and is one of the central elementary tools in mathematical analysis.

  6. Newton polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_polynomial

    Newton's formula is of interest because it is the straightforward and natural differences-version of Taylor's polynomial. Taylor's polynomial tells where a function will go, based on its y value, and its derivatives (its rate of change, and the rate of change of its rate of change, etc.) at one particular x value.

    On an expression or formula calculator, one types in an expression and then presses a key, such as "=" or "Enter", to evaluate the expression. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] There are various systems for typing in an expression, as described below.

  8. Jet (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, the jet is an operation that takes a differentiable function f and produces a polynomial, the Taylor polynomial (truncated Taylor series) of f, at each point of its domain. Although this is the definition of a jet, the theory of jets regards these polynomials as being abstract polynomials rather than polynomial functions.

  9. Power series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_series

    The partial sums of a power series are polynomials, the partial sums of the Taylor series of an analytic function are a sequence of converging polynomial approximations to the function at the center, and a converging power series can be seen as a kind of generalized polynomial with infinitely many terms. Conversely, every polynomial is a power ...
