It seems like you need a course on the fundamentals of programming!

What output did you get?

How does it differ from what you want?

You define 2 functions but never call them. So they will never run.

Do you know the difference?

I will not write a program for you, but will, as offered, help.

For starters what do the colons in the input mean? Are they decimal 
points? When I apply the input xmin = 2:5, dx = 0:5 and nx = 11 to the 
series definition xmin, xmin+dx I get 2.5 3.0 3.5 etc to infinity. Where 
did the -2.5 in the output come from?

If you assume xmin = -2.5 then it will work.

How in Python can you express this series (for loop?)

What class is this question from? Have you met the prerequisites for the 
class? If so why is the instructor expecting you to do something he has 
not prepared you for?
