What is the difference between a Taylor series and Taylor polynomial?
Can you explain what the remainder term represents in a Taylor polynomial approximation?
The remainder term represents the difference between the actual value of the function and the value estimated by the Taylor polynomial approximation. It's the difference between the nth term of the Taylor series and the nth degree Taylor polynomial. The remainder term can be used to estimate the error between the approximation and the actual value of the function.
