Interpolation and Taylor approximation

Fitting polynomials through points, and approximating functions near a centre.

Through n + 1 points passes exactly one polynomial of degree n (Lagrange). Near a point, the Taylor polynomial matches the derivatives. Picture it: the dashed polynomial hugging the curve near the centre and peeling away. Think it: approximation theory asks for the best polynomial over a whole interval, Chebyshev, not Taylor.

Taylor series of e^(x)

e^{x}

Krok po kroku

  1. f(x) = e^{x}

    Taylor series about x = 0: f(x) = Σ fᵏ(x₀)/k! · (x − x₀)ᵏ.

  2. f^{(0)}(0) = e^{x}\big|_{x=0} = 1

    Derivative 0 at the centre.

  3. f^{(1)}(0) = e^{x}\big|_{x=0} = 1

    Derivative 1 at the centre.

  4. f^{(2)}(0) = e^{x}\big|_{x=0} = 1

    Derivative 2 at the centre.

  5. f^{(3)}(0) = e^{x}\big|_{x=0} = 1

    Derivative 3 at the centre.

  6. f^{(4)}(0) = e^{x}\big|_{x=0} = 1

    Derivative 4 at the centre.

  7. f^{(5)}(0) = e^{x}\big|_{x=0} = 1

    Derivative 5 at the centre.

  8. \frac{x^{5}}{120} + \frac{x^{4}}{24} + \frac{x^{3}}{6} + \frac{x^{2}}{2} + x + 1

    Assemble the terms up to degree 5.

Pytania, które ludzie zadają

Why not just solve exactly?

Most equations have no closed-form solution at all, and many that do are unusable in practice. A numerical method delivers as many correct digits as you need, and a good one tells you how many that is.

Why can Newton's method fail?

If it starts where the tangent is nearly flat it shoots far away; near a repeated root it slows to a crawl; and with several roots it may land on the wrong one. A bracketing method like bisection is slower but cannot fail.
