Oh, it wasn't Reimann sums, it was Taylor series and stuff, which are semi-easy like Reimann sums, but just as useless and boring. I thought they were just there as proofs.




Yea, i knew what you were talking about.

All of that is part of what my text refers to "Infinite Sequences and Series"

Actually tho, i found it to be one of the most useful sections since a lot of the functions defined in 20th century physics and chemistry can only be approximated. Even simple functions in programing are approximated. IDK, i just thought that shit was cool.
