    Analysis: Potentially flawed proof in book describing roots of multiplicity m

    Thanks for the response, it is a very clear proof via Taylor's theorem. I am still wondering though if it is possible to prove from the definition provided. The problem is that Taylor's theorem is introduced after this particular definition and theorem. I definitely appreciate the proof via...

    Thanks for the feedback, I changed the latex tags to use ## which seems to have produced the desired effect. I actually just finished looking through every analysis book in my schools science library (rudin, funke, hille, haeussler, etc...) over 30 books and not one of them had this particular...
