### 28.2 Introduction to Series

Maxima contains functions `taylor` and `powerseries` for finding the series of differentiable functions. It also has tools such as `nusum` capable of finding the closed form of some series. Operations such as addition and multiplication work as usual on series. This section presents the global variables which control the expansion.
