  • Was there a point in [b]not[/b] using Taylor's Theorem to find the max error?

  • @gomunkul The truncation error is 1.2^3/3!+ 1.2^4/4! + ..............

    By using the concept of approximate error, we are trying to show how we can quantitatively determine accuracy of the result using finite number terms of the series without knowing the true value.

  • i think there is an error in at the tabulation approx error

  • @raikrahul Please tell me which part of the table and which number. That will help me in correcting the possible error.
