i need series representation for the equation of erfc(x) and maching with it in plot. there are series representation. taylor series is series expansion. in wolfram website (www.wolframalpha.com) you can write series erfc(x). you will find three or more series representation. i need one of these match with erfc(x) with function by k not x. like equation imges below (which one is good for matching plot figure )

x = 0.5;
format long
erfc(x)
for n=1:20
y(n) = erfc_by_series(x, n);
end
y'
function y= erfc_by_series(x, n)
t = x; % term inside sum for k=0
s = t;
for k=1:n
t = -t*x.^2/k;
s = s + t/(2*k+1);
end
y = 1 - 2/sqrt(pi)*s;
end

erfc(x) is 1 - 2/sqrt(pi)*s.
Or didn't you look at what you posted as the first representation of erfc(x) ?
