what about error sir Walter? we have to consider the error to find number of terms

The number of terms is going to be quite different for n around 5 than it is for n around 555555555555555555555555555 . The magnitude of n matters because your error requirement is stated in absolute form, not in relative form.
I suspect the taylor series is only valid for continuous functions, but if you do not restrict n to integer then you can get large complex magnitudes.
As you have not stated an expansion point, it would make more sense to use a series expansion instead of a taylor expansion, or at least a Maclaurin series (taylor around 0)

There is an approximation for upper bound on the error (or remaining terms in Taylor expansion). Here is a link that explains the method. From there, it is still not a closed form solution but you can roughly guess the order you want for desired error.
