Brook Taylor and Colin Maclaurin
Discovered in early 1700βs by Colin Maclaurin (who was Scottish) as a way to estimate the graph without the use of a calculator such as (cosine 2), where π=π Graphs were polynomials and not necessarily with Eulerβs Method, where it is done by several graphs Brook Taylor (from Middlesex, England SE London) took Maclaurin Polynomial and re-center π to another point besides zero Taylor also discovered Integration by parts 2/1/2019 4:25 AM Β§9.7: Introduction to Maclaurin Polynomials

Definition of Nth degree Maclaurin Polynomial
If π has π derivatives at π=π, then the polynomial: πth-degree Maclaurin polynomial for π at π=π is the equation: π· π π =π π + π β² π πβπ + π β²β² π π! π π + π β²β²β² π π! π π +β¦ π (π) π π! π π In a Maclaurin polynomial, the polynomial starts at zero (specific case of Taylorβs). For Taylor and Maclaurin polynomials, the approximate symbol β is used. 2/1/2019 4:25 AM Β§9.7: Introduction to Maclaurin Polynomials
