Real Analysis

Lecture 17: Taylor Polynomials; Remainder Term; Riemann Integrals

We begin by estimating how close the Taylor expansion approximates a function. To do so means that we need to bound the remainder term. After that, we turn to constructing the Riemann integrals. Integrals play a key role in all of mathematics and were originally constructed to calculate areas of complicated  figures.
