Lecture 01.03.04. Truncation Error: Example: Series

Summary: There are two sources of error - one comes from approximating numbers and another from approximating mathematical procedures.  In this lecture, an example of truncation error is given using a Maclaurin series.

Learning Objectives: After watching this lecture, you will be able to identify and calculate truncation error in a Maclaurin series.
