Chapter 4, Problem 24P

Develop a well-structured program to compute the Maclaurin series expansion for the cosine function as described in Prob. 4.2. The function should have the following features:

• Iterate until the relative error falls below a stopping criterion ( es ) or exceeds a maximum number of iterations ( maxit ) . Allow the user to specify values for these parameters.

• Include default values of ( es ) es ( = 0.000001 )  and maxit ( = 100 ) in the event that they are not specified by the user.

• Return the estimate of cos ( x ) , the approximate relative error, the number of iterations, and the true relative error (that you can calculate based on the built-in cosine function).

1. A Blue Whale's resting heart rate has period that happens to be approximately equal to 2π. A typical ECG of a whale's heartbeat over one period may be approximated by the function, f(x) = 0.005x4 2 0.005x³-0.364x² + 1.27x on the interval [0, 27]. Find an nth-order Fourier approximation to the Blue Whale's heartbeat, where n ≥ 3 is different from that used in any other posts on this topic, to generate a periodic function that can be used to model its heartbeat, and graph your result. Be sure to include your chosen value of n in your Subject Heading.
