"This is the formula for the **Taylor series** of a function. For practical purposes, we usually don't let the sum range from 0 to infinity, and instead cap the sum at some number, which we call the **order** of the resulting polynomial. For example, the 7th-order Taylor polynomial is a Taylor series with 7 terms."
