"content": "English mathematician and barrister Brook Taylor was born #OTD in 1685.\n\nHe is best known for his foundational work in calculus, particularly the Taylor series, which is an expansion of functions into infinite sums of derivatives. His work on the Taylor series, first published in 1715 in his book Methodus Incrementorum Directa et Inversa, revolutionized mathematical analysis and laid the groundwork for future developments in calculus.\n\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brook_Taylor\n\n#mathematics\nhttps://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/112/982/442/265/105/411/original/8cbd29b89a2b1cf0.jpg\n",
