taylor expanssion calculation result is wrong

function [SN] = sintaylorfunction(A, tol)
k = 0;
error = 0 ;
sin = 0;
SN = sin;
sinplus1 = 0;
SM = sinplus1;
while E <= tol
sin = (-1)^k * A^(2*k+1)/factorial(2*k+1);
SN = SN + sin;
sinplus1 = (-1)^(k+1) * A^(2*(k+1)+1)/factorial(2*(k+1)+1);
SM = SM + sinplus1;
error= abs( max(SM - SN));
end
end
I wrote the sin function in this way. When I calculate sin(pi/2), I get sin(pi/2) = 1.5708. However, we know that sin(pi/2) = 1. Where is my mistake in my function?

kou are not incrementing 'k' inside the while-loop. Also, the while-condition is incorrect. Try the following code
sintaylorfunction(pi/2, 0.01)
function [SN] = sintaylorfunction(A, tol)
k = 0;
error = inf;
sin = 0;
SN = sin;
sinplus1 = 0;
SM = sinplus1;
while error >= tol
sin = (-1)^k * A^(2*k+1)/factorial(2*k+1);
SN = SN + sin;
sinplus1 = (-1)^(k+1) * A^(2*(k+1)+1)/factorial(2*(k+1)+1);
SM = SM + sinplus1;
error= abs( max(SM - SN));
k = k+1;
end
end

thank very much!! I didnt know the increment term. It helps very much. Well, my another question is that will I use the same things for cos expansion in the same while loop except for its fomula ?
Yes, the formula for taylor series of cos is a bit different as shown in your question too. The method will be same.
sintaylorfunction(pi/2, 0.01)
function [SN CN] = sintaylorfunction(A, tol)
k = 0;
error = inf;
sin = 0;
SN = sin;
sinplus1 = 0;
SM = sinplus1;
while error >= tol
sin = (-1)^k * A^(2*k+1)/factorial(2*k+1);
SN = SN + sin;
sinplus1 = (-1)^(k+1) * A^(2*(k+1)+1)/factorial(2*(k+1)+1);
SM = SM + sinplus1;
error= abs( max(SM - SN));
k = k+1;
end
n=0;
error_cos=inf;
cos=1;
CN=cos;
cosplus1 = 1;
CM = cosplus1;
while error_cos >=tol
cos = (-1)^n * A^(2*n)/factorial(2*n);
CN = CN + cos;
cosplus1 = (-1)^(n+1) * A^(2*(n+1))/factorial(2*(n+1));
CM = CM + cosplus1;
error= abs( max(CM - CN));
n
= n+1;
end
end
again I get wrong result for cos. I cannot find my mistake.
I have simplified your code a bit. Following will work
[q, w] = sintaylorfunction(pi/2, 0.01)
function [SN CN] = sintaylorfunction(A, tol)
k = 0;
error = inf;
SN = 0;
while error >= tol
sin = (-1)^k * A^(2*k+1)/factorial(2*k+1);
SN = SN + sin;
sinplus1 = (-1)^(k+1) * A^(2*(k+1)+1)/factorial(2*(k+1)+1);
error= abs(sinplus1-sin);
k = k+1;
end
n=0;
error_cos=inf;
CN=0;
while error_cos >=tol
cos = (-1)^n * A^(2*n)/factorial(2*n);
CN = CN + cos;
cosplus1 = (-1)^(n+1) * A^(2*(n+1))/factorial(2*(n+1));
error_cos= abs(cosplus1-cos);
n = n+1;
end
end
many thanks dear Hamza. I see my missings.

I want to walk through your code and comment on a few places.
function [SN] = sintaylorfunction(A, tol)
k = 0;
error = 0 ;
Don't create a variable named error. That identifier already has a meaning in MATLAB.
sin = 0;
The identifier sin also already has a meaning in MATLAB, so I recommend you choose a different variable name.
SN = sin;
sinplus1 = 0;
SM = sinplus1;
while E <= tol
The variable E doesn't exist.
sin = (-1)^k * A^(2*k+1)/factorial(2*k+1);
From the role this plays, a better name might be term.
SN = SN + sin;
sinplus1 = (-1)^(k+1) * A^(2*(k+1)+1)/factorial(2*(k+1)+1);
SM = SM + sinplus1;
error= abs( max(SM - SN));
In this loop you change neither the (nonexistent) variable E nor the variable tol. So if this were to enter the loop, you'd never exit.
FYI, you might want to check your answer using the funm function to compute the matrix cosine and matrix sine.
