The taylor poly is centered at pi, with a radius of
convergence of no less than pi, making it roughly accurate
between 0 and 2 * pi. The polynomial is up to x^20, so it
should be pretty accurate within that range.

confirmed as being accurate being 0 and 2 * pi.

Plus, since we're taking advantage of cosine being an
even function, we don't need any terms less than 0, so
why *center* at zero and include negatives?
(Of course, I've not done the radius of convergence work
for this to find out how many degrees we need to get a
radius of convergence of pi, so I may have used too many
terms, anyways. Not that I can't reduce that...)
