That is the principal part. Do you like fancy theorems?

Re: Oh,Oh,Oh,merry analysis!!!

There is a theorem that says this:

If c_n are the coefficients of f(x) and d_n are the coefficients of the principal part of f(x) when expanded around the smallest singularity then c_n - d_n is very small as n approaches infinity.

Re: Oh,Oh,Oh,merry analysis!!!

It means the the coefficients of the principle part

when you expand it at 0 will approximate the coefficients of

when expanded at 0. Remember we are looking for the coefficient
of z^10000 for f(z).

The significance of this is not really apparent right now but when we finish it will be.

hi bobbym and Stefy

Here's a pic of baby James, being admired by his Dad.  Cute, huh?

Hi Bob;

Yes, very cute and very beautiful. He will grow up strong and happy.

Re: Oh,Oh,Oh,merry analysis!!!

hi Bob

he's very cute.but i don't think that being strong matters as much as being smart,so i think he will grow up to be as smart as his Grandpa or even smarter! big_smile

Re: Oh,Oh,Oh,merry analysis!!!

hi bobbym and Stefy,

Thanks for your comments.  My daughter is very amused that a group of mathematicians is so interested in her baby.  But it shouldn't surprise her that much as she has a 'first' in maths herself!  smile

Hi Bob;

That is a good question and if I ever get a chance to talk to a mathematician in person I will remember to ask. For myself, it is the hands. The small fingers and palms. Cutest thing I ever saw. Next come the ears, fascinating!

Well I'm delighted that you are interested!  So many thanks.

?? bobbym, you have an interesting imagination.  The only hand visible in that picture belongs to his Dad!

Re: Oh,Oh,Oh,merry analysis!!!

@bobbym

back to the problem.

the series expansion would be: e+ex+ex^2+...

So what do you think the coefficient of x^10000 is in f(x)?
