This question of mine about syntax is probably not welcome on math.stackexchange.com:

"In Maple, taylor(exp(x),x,2); returns 1+x+O(x^2). How can I automatically convert this result to the same expression with the O(x^2) terms removed? I.e. something like removeBigO(taylor(exp(x),x,2)); to return 1+x?"

I'm wondering if the above question would be on-topic on SO. The FAQ and searches on meta about this aren't clear. The question basically comes down to whether or not syntax questions for computer algebra systems like are considered "programming questions".

Is the above quoted question welcome on SO?

    mathematica must be renamed to mathapps to support Tora, Maple and other applications.
