I am trying to build a program that calculates Taylor series for sin(x). With x bigger than 0 and less than pi/2 (I tried to write with latex but didn't work(??)) . Approximation of sin(x) is around the point x0 = 0. e is the max error (or inaccuracy... I don't know how it's called). Error(or inaccuracy) is calculated with the formula in the method I call r. So r must always be less than e. Finally, n is the number of iterations. Below is my program, it works with no errors but i get inaccurate results and i don't know what i am doing wrong(maybe we should take into consideration the propability of using a formula with mistakes).

```
import java.lang.Math;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class hw74 { 
    public static long factorial(int number) {
        long result = 1;

        for (int factor = 2; factor <= number; factor++) {
            result *= factor;
        }

        return result;
    }

    static double p(double x, double x0, int n) {
        double PT = Math.pow(-1, n) * (Math.pow(x-x0, 2*n+1)/factorial(2*n+1));
        return PT;
    }

    static double r(double x, int n) {
        double rn = Math.pow(x, n+1)/factorial(n+1);
        return Math.abs(rn);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        double x0 = 0;
        System.out.println("Give x. ");
        double x = sc.nextDouble();
        System.out.println("Give E. ");
        double e = sc.nextDouble();
        System.out.println("Give N. ");
        int n = sc.nextInt();
        int i = 0;
        //System.out.println(e<r(x, i) && i<n);
        //System.out.println(r(x, i));
        while((r(x, i)<e) && i<n) {
            i++;
            System.out.println("N is : "+i);
            System.out.println("P is : "+p(x,x0,n));
            System.out.println("E is : "+r(x,n));
        }
    }   
}

```

For example: for n=5, e=1 and x=pi/5 (0.62831853071), the results should be : sin(pi/5) = 0.5877852522... For n=1 r=0.1974, n=2 r=0.0413, n=3 r=0.0065, n=4 r=8.16\*10^(-4), n=5 r=8.54\*10^(-5)
