First‚ we let the polynomial fn(x)= a0 + a1x + a2x2 + ... + anxn approximate f(x) near x=0‚ and let this functions first n derivatives match the the derivatives of f(x) at x=0. So if we want to make the derivatives of fn(x) equal to f(x) at x=0‚ we have to chose the coefficients a0 through an properly. How do we do this? We’ll write down the polynomial and its derivatives as

recent years there has been considerable growth in the use of credit derivatives‚ which protect lenders against the risk that a borrower will default.
