Jun 20, 2009 - wonderful, glad you nailed it : ) i tend to pick out good examples, in my own humble opinion : )

Jun 20, 2009 - i had to prove that the function 1/(a-x)^2 is equal to the summation from n=0 to infinity: (n+1)x^n.if i didn't watch the video I wouldn't have known that I should NOT simply the derivatives so that i can actually show what happens while I perform the derivatives to be able to show a sequence of (n+1) attached to x^n.. cheers for that :)

Jun 24, 2009 - if only u were my lecturer for maths. I'll always look forward to go to your lectures. i will not miss a lecture, even if I only have 1 lecture that entire day and having to travel 2 hrs to get to uni. Because you explain things so clearly and easy to understand!

Jul 11, 2009 - To which kind of functions is possible to make the Taylor and McLaurin expansion?

Jul 14, 2009 - thanks for this video! these taylor series actually make sense now.

Jul 30, 2009 - Thanks man, a quick example helps a lot.

Aug 5, 2009 - When you said "the is that you can write a function, f(x), in terms of an infinite sum of other functions" (30 sec) sort of confused me because now I don't see what the difference is between the Taylor series and regular power series. Are Taylor series a type of power series?

patrickJMT Says:

Aug 5, 2009 - Are Taylor series a type of power series? yes

Sep 3, 2009 - thanks man.. its a shame your left handed, you cover up the work

Sep 5, 2009 - Thanks! Where can I find the justification of when I can and when I can't?

Oct 1, 2009 - YAY thank u so so so much...now i can do my hmwk cuz i understand now

eleaz28 Says:

Oct 18, 2009 - but what if the ask me for the fifth derivative of a huge function?, is there a way to use McLauring without having to do the derivative one by one?

maxxnitro88 Says:

Oct 20, 2009 - want to come take my midterm for me? very helpful thanks a lot!

Nov 5, 2009 - thanks a lot can you help us about linear functional analysis,?

Nov 5, 2009 - Man I wish I had discovered these videos before. You're a really good teacher :)

Nov 15, 2009 - awesome man. thanks a lot

Nov 17, 2009 - so what exactly is "a"??? just a random point?

lIPerfectIl Says:

Nov 18, 2009 - Yes. Most of the time, your professor will give you a.
