	E (mathematical constant) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	The number e
		The number e is, compared to π, a relative newcomer on the mathematics scene.
		Of course, the number e is such that the area under the rectangular hyperbola from 1 to e is equal to 1.
		Perhaps surprisingly, since this work on logarithms had come so close to recognising the number e, when e is first "discovered" it is not through the notion of logarithm at all but rather through a study of compound interest.

	The Constant e (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		"e" is a numerical constant that is equal to 2.71828.
		The value of "e" is found in many mathematical formulas such as those describing a nonlinear increase or decrease such as growth or decay (including compound interest), the statistical "bell curve," the shape of a hanging cable or a standing arch.
		The number e was first studied by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler in the 1720s, although its existence was more or less implied in the work of John Napier, the inventor of logarithms, in 1614.

		This method of computing e is very fast - try it by stopping the continued fraction somewhere, as I did here, and punch it into a calculator.
		Note the natural logarithm of e is 1, because e^1 = e; that is, 1 is the exponent for which the base (e) is equal to e.

	Is e Normal?
		A number is called "normal" with respect to a given base if, when the number is expressed in that base, the asymptotic frequencies of occurrence of each distinct string of k digits are equal, and this applies to every positive integer k.
		For example, if a number is normal in the base 10, the asymptotic frequency of occurrence of each of the decimal numerals 0,1,..,9 is precisely 1/10, and the asymptotic frequency of each two-digit strings 00,01,02,...,99 is exactly 1/100, and so on.
		It may be worth noting that of all these numbers, the digits of pi are the most thoroughly checked and verified, and those are the digits that converge most satisfactorily to the theoretical value.

		(...and an infinite number of digits after that) is 'e', the base of the natural logarithm.
		Because it can't be expressed as a ratio of two numbers, it's known mathematically as "irrational" -- something some bankers might say about the way Google is going public.
		However, 'e' also happens to be "transcendental," another fancy property of a number that means it can't be expressed by a finite number of algebraic operations.
