SeriesData[x, $x_0$, {$a_0$, $a_1$, ...}, $n_{min}$, $n_{max}$, den]

produces a power series in the variable x about point $x_0$. The ai are the coefficients of the power series. The powers of (x-$x_0$) that appear are $n_{min}$/den, ($n_{min}$+1)/den, ..., $n_{max}$/den.

SeriesData is the Head of expressions generated by Series:

• • series = Series[Cosh[x],{x,0,2}]

• • Head[series]

• • series // FullForm

You can apply certain mathematical operations to SeriesData objects to get new SeriesData objects truncated to the appropriate order.

• • series + Series[Sinh[x],{x, 0, 3}]

• • Series[f[x],{x,0,2}] * g[w]

The product of two series on the same neighborhood of the same variable are multiplied:

• • Series[Exp[-a x],{x,0,2}] * Series[Exp[-b x],{x,0,2}]

• • D[Series[Exp[-a x],{x,0,2}],a]
