ASSIGNMENT 14 - TAYLOR SERIES IS 605 FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS - 2014 This week, we’ll work out some Taylor Series expansions of popular functions.  f(x) = 1/(1-????x)  f(x) = e^x  f(x) = ln(1 + x) For each function, only consider its valid ranges as indicated in the notes when you are computing the Taylor Series expansion.
