Re: [Maxima-discuss] Is there a way to expand ((1 + y )^ (1/n)) for y and n > 0?

[Gunter K. <gu...@pe...>]

Do you mean something along the line of the following?

(%i7)    expand(
        subst(n=10,eq1)
    );
(%o7)    (y+1)^(1/10)


for n=1/10 the result can be expanded; For limiting the result to a
fixed number of terms you may look at taylor().

Kind regards,
