Description
Examples
RateOfConvergence(S, n, opts)
S
-
algebraic; the function or sequence
n
name; the name of the indexing variable
opts
(optional) equation(s) of the form keyword = value where keyword is isfunction; whether S is is a function or sequence
isfunction = true or false
Whether to find the rate of convergence of a sequence or a function. If S is a function, isfunction must be set to true. By default, isfunction=false.
If the input is a sequence an, the return value of the RateOfConvergence command is of the form L+O⁡n−d, where L=limn→∞⁡an and an−L=O⁡n−d for some 0<d.
If the input is a function f⁡x, the return value is of the form L+O⁡xd, where L=limx→0⁡f⁡x and f⁡x−L=O⁡xd for some 0<d
If S is a function, the option isfunction must be set to true.
By default, the isfunction option is set to false.
