Typing:

gives:

•

Example — Expansion in the vicinity of x=+∞
or x=–∞

Example 1

Give a 5th-order expansion of arctan(x) in the vicinity of
x=+∞, taking as infinitely small

.

Typing:

SERIES(ATAN(X),X =+∞,5)

gives:

Example 2

Give a 2nd-order expansion of

in the

vicinity of x=+∞, taking as infinitely small

.

gives:

•

Unidirectional expansion

To perform an expansion in the vicinity of x = a where
x > a, use a positive real (such as 4.0) for the order.

To perform an expansion in the vicinity of x = a where
x < a, use a negative real (such as –4.0) for the order.
