increment h. The list returned as the first output object includes the following
items:

1 - Bi-directional limit of the function at point of expansion, i.e.,

2 - An equivalent value of the function near x = a
3 - Expression for the Taylor polynomial
4 - Order of the residual or remainder
Because of the relatively large amount of output, this function is easier to handle
in RPN mode. For example:

Drop the contents of stack level 1 by pressing

ƒ, and then enter μ, to

decompose the list. The results are as follows:

In the right-hand side figure above, we are using the line editor to see the series
expansion in detail.
