create a mclaurins series in matlab

To create a Maclaurin series in MATLAB, you can use the taylor function. The Maclaurin series is a special case of the Taylor series, where the expansion point is at 0 (zero). Here's an example:

main.m
syms x; % Define the variable

% Define the function you want to expand as a Maclaurin series
f = sin(x);

% Specify the order of the Maclaurin series
order = 5;

% Calculate the Maclaurin series
taylor_series = taylor(f, x, 'Order', order);

% Display the Maclaurin series
disp(taylor_series);

In this example, we calculate the Maclaurin series expansion of the function sin(x) up to the 5th order. The taylor function calculates the series and stores it in the variable taylor_series. Finally, we display the Maclaurin series using the disp function.

You can modify the code to calculate the Maclaurin series for different functions and orders by changing the appropriate variables.
