sym/taylor
  taylor(f) is the fifth order Taylor polynomial approximation
        of f about the point x=0 (also known as fifth order
        Maclaurin polynomial), where x is obtained via symvar(f,1).
 
  taylor(f,x) is the fifth order Taylor polynomial approximation
        of f with respect to x about x=0. x can be a vector.
        In case x is a vector, multivariate expansion about x(1)=0,
        x(2)=0,... is used.
 
  taylor(f,x,a) is the fifth order Taylor polynomial approximation
        of f with respect to x about the point a. x and a can be
        vectors. If x is a vector and a is scalar, then a is
        expanded into a vector of the same size as x with all
        components equal to a. If x and a both are vectors, then
        they must have same length.
        In case x and a are vectors, multivariate expansion about
        x(1)=a(1),x(2)=a(2),... is used.
 
  In addition to that, the calls
 
    taylor(f,'PARAM1',val1,'PARAM2',val2,...)
    taylor(f,x,'PARAM1',val1,'PARAM2',val2,...)
    taylor(f,x,a,'PARAM1',val1,'PARAM2',val2,...)
 
  can be used to specify one or more of the following parameter
  name/value pairs:
 
    Parameter        Value
 
    'ExpansionPoint' Compute the Taylor polynomial approximation
                     about the point a. a can be a vector. If x is a
                     vector, then a has to be of the same length as x.
                     If a is scalar and x is a vector, a is expanded into
                     a vector of the same length as x with all components
                     equal to a. Note that if x is not given as in
                     taylor(f,'ExpansionPoint',a), then a must be
                     scalar (since x is determined via symvar(f,1)).
                     It is always possible to specify the expansion
                     point as third argument without explicitly using
                     a parameter value pair.
 
    'Order'          Compute the Taylor polynomial approximation with
                     order n-1, where n has to be a positive integer. The
                     default value n=6 is used.
 
    'OrderMode'      Compute the Taylor polynomial approximation using
                     relative or absolute order. 'Absolute' order is the
                     truncation order of the computed series. 'Relative'
                     order n means the exponents of x in the computed
                     series range from some leading order v to the highest
                     exponent v + n - 1 (i.e., the exponent of x in the
                     Big-Oh term is v + n). In this case, n essentially
                     is the "number of x powers" in the computed series
                     if the series involves all integer powers of x
 
    Examples:
       syms x y z;
 
       taylor(exp(-x))
       returns  x^4/24 - x^5/120 - x^3/6 + x^2/2 - x + 1
 
       taylor(sin(x),x,pi/2,'Order',6)
       returns  (pi/2 - x)^4/24 - (pi/2 - x)^2/2 + 1
 
       taylor(sin(x)*cos(y)*exp(x),[x y z],[0 0 0],'Order',4)
       returns  x - (x*y^2)/2 + x^2 + x^3/3
 
       taylor(exp(-x),x,'OrderMode','Relative','Order',8)
       returns  - x^7/5040 + x^6/720 - x^5/120 + x^4/24 - x^3/6 + ...
                x^2/2 - x + 1
 
       taylor(log(x),x,'ExpansionPoint',1,'Order',4)
       returns  x - 1 - 1/2*(x - 1)^2 + 1/3*(x - 1)^3
 
       taylor([exp(x),cos(y)],[x,y],'ExpansionPoint',[1 1],'Order',4)
       returns  exp(1) + exp(1)*(x - 1) + (exp(1)*(x - 1)^2)/2 + ...
               (exp(1)*(x - 1)^3)/6'), cos(1) + (sin(1)*(y - 1)^3)/6 - ...
                sin(1)*(y - 1) - (cos(1)*(y - 1)^2)/2
 
       taylor(exp(z)/(x - y),[x,y,z],'ExpansionPoint',[Inf,0,0], ...
              'OrderMode','Absolute','Order',6)
       returns  y^2/x^3 + z^2/(2*x) + z^3/(6*x) + z^4/(24*x) + y/x^2 + ...
                z/x + 1/x + (y*z)/x^2 + (y*z^2)/(2*x^2)
