In this video I approximate the cube root function x^(1/3) by using a 2nd degree Taylor polynomial at a = 8. The first step is to obtain the first 2 derivatives of f at x = 8, and then the third derivative

Hi there. In this math & Python post, I cover one way of approximating the value of pi in Python programming. It is based on this .pdf link here. That .pdf link mentions MATLAB but I'll use Python
