I am trying to find the radius of convergence for the following function

$$ f(x)=\sin(\pi x/4)$$

I already found the Maclaurin series of the function and applied the ratio test but seems I cant get the radius of convergence right. I find the radius

$R = 4/\pi$

    If you want somebody to find the mistake, you need to show the work that might contain the mistake. Often it is hard to guess just from the result.2012-04-23

    Perhaps you forgot the $1/n!$ factor in the coefficients of the Maclaurin series?2012-04-23

    excuse me if I am stupid, do you mean $f(x)$ as a complex function? a real function $\sin[x]$ always converges..2012-04-23

    I found the Maclaurin series /$sum (-1)^n * pi^(2n+1)/(2n+1)! * x^(2n+1)/4^(2n+1) How do i find the Radius of convergence now?2012-04-23

    it is over 4 instead of over 2 the function. just edited it.2012-04-23

    The sine function is analytic.2012-04-23

    The radius of convergence is infinity, as it is always < 1, Thanks everybody for your help. Just found it.2012-04-23
