| Apr 7, 2014 at 2:51 | comment | added | Bob Pego | I agree with your main point. There is a natural way to derive Taylor polynomials based on recursive use of the fundamental theorem, outlined in an answer to this question. The recursion makes it natural to wonder what happens if it's carried out indefinitely --- hopefully this motivates the notion of infinite series. | |
