SeriesTermGoal
is an option for Asymptotic, DiscreteAsymptotic and similar functions that specifies the number of desired terms in an asymptotic approximation.
Details
- The default setting of SeriesTermGoal is Automatic.
- Asymptotics functions typically return a leading asymptotic approximation with the default setting.
- Asymptotic series approximations with a specific order n can be obtained by setting SeriesTermGoal to n.
