234:"When an exponent is zero, the corresponding power expression is usually omitted from the term." I was thoroughly confused by the intended meaning of this. Does it simply mean that any x or y raised to the power 0 is taken to be 1? If so, why not say exactly that? Otherwise, it's unclear what exponent is being referred to, what power expression is being referred to, and what is meant by "associated" power expression. If that is *not* what is meant, then I would request that the statement be rewritten to clarify the intended meaning.

The section on the infinite series for e is alright up until "This indicates that e can be written as a series:", at which point rigor and accuracy is lost. See Rudin, Priniciples of
Mathematical Analysis, Section 3.3.1, for a proof. The mistake in the page as it exists is that it is not sufficient

not only shows a willingness to use the Talk page constructively, he shows an enthusiasm for doing so. Therefore I endorse the standard advocated by Deacon Vorbis. The editor at 80.65.247.112 should either adopt the

Cherowitzo's version was much better than the previous one, but I think consideration of weight dictates that we should just ignore this issue in the lead paragraph. It's a minor technical detail, and it was receiving more prominence than binomial coefficients. We can address it in the body,

This produces no difference in rendered output. A small handful of the changes you made were reasonable, mainly display mode vs. text mode for binomial coefficients. I reinstated those (which you took back out in your rush to revert me), but the vast majority were either unnecessary or actively

I think it's better to cite Rashed here, because the source used is St
Andrews, but while O'Connor and Robertson quote Rashed's statement, and apparently agree with it, the statement itself is Rashed's alone, and would be best cited directly to the source where he makes it. Not doing so when the

Hi! The substitution of e^ax and e^bx into the general
Leibniz formula seems to have no sources and thus seems to be original research. Although I understand that this substitution is correct mathematically, but there are no published sources having the same idea. Please take a moment to review

I suggest that following the first sentence: "In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial." that a sentence is added stating "For binomial expansions where the exponent is not a positive integer, see the article
828:, which apparently are public domain and in my opinion has a better "Statement of the theorem" than this article. For example, it also states that "The series in eq. (1) can be used for any value of n, integer or not, but when n is an integer the series terminates or ends after n+1 terms."
1377:
That's only one issue :p. Abstractly you are certainly right; concretely, are there any particular places you think are suspect (either, might be wrong, or with inappropriate weight, or original research)? Because "please make the article better" alone is not very constructive.
1001:
In the examples section there are some with fractional or negative exponent, but the generalized binomial theorem that deals with those cases is only mentioned later. Up to this point only non-negative integer values of $ n$ have been considered and the summation is always

The only reply to your only point, which is to assert "inappropriate", is to assert "appropriate". I am not going to further engage in pointless rhetoric with people want to claim that some standard should be met, never stating that standard, and moving it when it pleases

I notice that 80.65.247.112 doesn't want to say much on this Talk page, and doesn't leave edit summaries to give some hint as to his motivation. Neither of these habits is compatible with the way we do things on
