Taylor and Maclaurin Series

The video tutorial introduces Taylor and Maclaurin series, building on the concept of power series. It explains how to find coefficients using differentiation and derives the Taylor series formula. The special case of the Maclaurin series is discussed, with an example using the function e^x. The video concludes with a discussion on the radius of convergence and a brief summary of the topic.
