error while trying to plot x^2/10 + sin(2x)/2 funtion

Question

xnum = np.linspace(-5, 5, 1000)
a = -3
n = 0
d = (((x^2) / (10))+(np.sin(2*x) / (2)))
dfs = ta.derivatives(d, x, a, n)
ta.plotter(xnum, ta.taylor(xnum, a, dfs), d, a)

I am getting the error:

"TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'Not' and 'int'" on my 6th line?

Please post the full stack trace of the error you're getting. — Mihai Chelaru, Nov 26 '18 at 21:22
`x ^ 2` is not doing what you think it is. Unless your formula really does involve a bitwise XOR. Squaring it would look like `x ** 2` — user3483203, Nov 26 '18 at 21:23

I feel like its the line

d = (((x^2) / (10))+(np.sin(2*x) / (2)))

that's causing the trouble, power in python is not ^ (which is binary xor), you can use np.power or ** notation.
