| Mar 19, 2015 at 23:55 | comment | added | Brendan McKay | Since I was assuming $p\le\frac12$, the largest value of the fourth derivative of $f$ in the interval $[\frac p2,1-\frac p2]$ occurs at $x=\frac p2$. And the fourth derivative is positive in the interval. I used that in the standard formula for the remainder term. | |
