- Homework Statement
- Is there some way to approximate this function, for x=1?
- Relevant Equations
- The function is ##(x-1)^{1/n}##, with ##n## integer and n>1 and n=odd.
Obviously, a priori it is not possible tu use the Taylor series because the derivative ##\sim (x-1)^{1/n-1}## is not well defined in x=1.
Is there any mathematical trick? or, other approximation?
