This question of mine about maple 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 likeremoveBigO(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 maple are considered "programming questions".
Is the above quoted question welcome on SO?
