FiddleToRome's Journal: Taylor Series

I was actually excited about something during calculus today. I can't say that I recall the last time I looked forward to any part of that class. Probably the last time was when I was still outside of the calculus classroom in another room several months ago. (That sentence sucked.)

In class, we were working on Taylor series. I saw a great opportunity to write a program for my TI-89. I had it all mapped out in my head. I also was contemplating using TIGCC instead of just plain-old BASIC that's available for coding on the calculator. My bubble was promptly burst. A couple pages later in the series packet it was revealed that the TI-89 has a built in function for handling Taylor series. Well, here's to the last time I'll be excited about anything dealing with calculus class.
