Power Series Solutions and Special Functions
Most of the specific functions encountered in elementary analysis belong to a class known as the elementary functions. In order to describe this class, we begin by recalling that an algebraic function is a polynomial, a rational function, or more generally any function y = f(x) that satisfies an equ...
