Aug 2, 2017 · The "and" is a pointer that (a) first we approximate and (b) then we compute exactly. The final result is an approximation only because of (a). Related to this, it is useful to …

Jul 7, 2017 · And he could approximate small values by performing some mental math to get an accurate approximation to three decimal places. For example, approximating $e^ {3.3}$, we …

Apr 13, 2017 · I'm trying to approximate $\coth (x)$ around $x = 0$, up to say, third order in $x$. Now obviously a simple taylor expansion doesn't work, as it diverges around $x = 0$.

Aug 16, 2017 · Let's say a number 998. I might approximate using the following ~1k. 1k is not definite number but it's more or less very close. Is this the correct way of using ~? I noticed …
