Talk:Taylor's Theorem

I changed the formatting on the 3 block of LaTeX under Integral Version since it wasn't parsing. However, I would be curious to know if there is a way to align equals signs (which is what I assume was intended) in wiki formatting. If anyone knows, tell me so I don't have to go through 20 different wikipedia manual pages to find out. Thanks. --cynic 03:36, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

My usual technique is to use a table. See my user page or some of the posts I've put up for how I do this. It's not ideal but it works for me. --Matt Westwood 05:15, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

You could also use: $ \begin{matrix} =& 2+2\\ =&4 \end{matrix} $ See the code for this page. It just uses matricies.--Joe 11:41, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Trouble with that is that it centralises the RHS and it usually looks better to left justify it. What I've done is set myself up a template for a proof which has a right justified LHS, centre justified bit in the middle (usually a relation or something) and a left justified RHS. If there is no LHS (as is usual in the way I present my proofs and extended equations), that column can be deleted. --Matt Westwood 21:23, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for cleaning this up guys! --Jehan60188 20:44, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Questionable proof
This page seems to just claim a simplified version of taylor's theorem and then prove it by quoting taylor's theorem more specifically... I want to insert a "questionable" marker. --Brendan Wallace (talk) 01:09, 14 October 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, I don't understand. I can count three proofs. Are they all complete rubbish? If so then I need to take a view on my competence, and perhaps resign my position. --prime mover (talk) 06:09, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
