taylor_series#
- pynlo.utility.taylor_series(x0, fn)[source]#
Calculate a Taylor series expansion given the derivatives of a function about a point.
- Parameters:
- x0float
The center point of the Taylor series expansion.
- fnarray_like
The value and derivatives of the function evaluated at x0. The coefficients must be given in order of increasing degree, i.e.
[f(x0), f'(x0), f''(x0), ...]
.
- Returns:
- pwr_seriesnumpy.polynomial.Polynomial
A NumPy Polynomial object representing the Taylor series expansion.
