If n is allowed to increase without limit in the polynomial obtained by Taylor’s theorem, the result is a Taylor’s series. The sum of such a series represents the expanded function if, and only if, the limit of R (sub-n) as n becomes infinite is zero. 1, record 4, English, - Taylor%26rsquo%3Bs%20series
