Anyone know anything interesting about the number e?

[MrCodeDude]

Other than the fact that it equals 2.718281828, etc. ?

[tweakmm]

A little known fact that translated into postmodern anandtechian 'e' stands for "do you own homework"
Shocking isn't it?

 

[dighn]

the derivative of e^x is itself
e^(2pi*i) = 1

 

[MrCodeDude]

E isn't as near as cool (nor easy) as pi was to do

It's smaller than it looks

Yes, and you might as well get the Justin Timberlake "Cry me a river B!tch" pic out of the way while you're at it.

e^(bi) = cosb + isinb

 

[Johnnie]

E is only 14

 

[GhettoFob]

E is a letter.

 

[cavemanmoron]

E>>?
Entertainment tonight?

 

[mchammer187]

ln ( e) = 1

when you post math/science questions you are bound to get non-serious replies like these. don't get so worke dup

Heh, if you post anything on AT, you're bound to get answers like these

I'm not worked up.

[notfred]

e, not E

 

[iwearnosox]

This edition of Sesame Street is brought to you by the number E.?

 

[dighn]

e - e = 0

 

[chiwawa626]

e = 1+ 1/1! + 1/2! + 1/3! +1/4! + .... 1/n! (as n approaches infinity)

 

[Dudd]

The integral and derivitive of e^x = e^x (Of course, the derivitive is really e^x * x', but you get the idea).

 

[DaveSimmons]

It's a crazy number! Just like that pie thing! not rational at all! It's got Energizer Bunny in its digits!

 

[MrCodeDude]

Anyone know any of it's main uses other than to calculate continuous interest?

[Dark4ng3l]

Uh well it's the base used to calculate the derivatives of exponential and logarithmic equations.

 

[dighn]

e is a very useful quantity for solving differential equations.

You know I left engineering because of intergrals and derivatives.
QUICK! whats the integral of e^ax!
