The Taylor series of a function f (x) that is infinitely differentiable at a number a is the power series
f(x)=f(a)+1!f′(a)(x−a)+2!f′′(a)(x−a)2+3!f′′′(a)(x−a)2+... .
When a=0, the series is also called a Maclaurin series.
f(x)=ex , f(0)=1 ;
f′(x)=ex , f′(0)=1 ;
f′′(x)=ex , f′′(0)=1 ;
f′′′(x)=ex , f′′′(0)=1 .
ex=1+1!1(x−0)+2!1(x−0)2+3!1(x−0)3+...=1+x+21x2+61x3+...
Answer: ex=1+x+21x2+61x3+... .
