2. List of representations of e - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_representations_of_e

   List of representations of. e. The mathematical constant e can be represented in a variety of ways as a real number. Since e is an irrational number (see proof that e is irrational), it cannot be represented as the quotient of two integers, but it can be represented as a continued fraction.

3. Euler's continued fraction formula - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_continued_fraction...

   Euler derived the formula as connecting a finite sum of products with a finite continued fraction. (+ (+ (+))) = + + + + = + + + +The identity is easily established by induction on n, and is therefore applicable in the limit: if the expression on the left is extended to represent a convergent infinite series, the expression on the right can also be extended to represent a convergent infinite ...

4. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

   A finite regular continued fraction, where is a non-negative integer, is an integer, and is a positive integer, for . A continued fraction is a mathematical expression that can be writen as a fraction with a denominator that is a sum that contains another simple or continued fraction. Depending on whether this iteration terminates with a simple ...

5. Exponential function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

   Exponential functions with bases 2 and 1/2. The exponential function is a mathematical function denoted by () = ⁡ or (where the argument x is written as an exponent).Unless otherwise specified, the term generally refers to the positive-valued function of a real variable, although it can be extended to the complex numbers or generalized to other mathematical objects like matrices or Lie algebras.

6. Proof that e is irrational - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_e_is_irrational

   Proof that e is irrational. Proof that. e. is irrational. The number e was introduced by Jacob Bernoulli in 1683. More than half a century later, Euler, who had been a student of Jacob's younger brother Johann, proved that e is irrational; that is, that it cannot be expressed as the quotient of two integers.

7. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

   The following list includes the continued fractions of some constants and is sorted by their representations. Continued fractions with more than 20 known terms have been truncated, with an ellipsis to show that they continue. Rational numbers have two continued fractions; the version in this list is the shorter one.

8. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

   v. t. e. Euler's formula, named after Leonhard Euler, is a mathematical formula in complex analysis that establishes the fundamental relationship between the trigonometric functions and the complex exponential function. Euler's formula states that, for any real number x, one has where e is the base of the natural logarithm, i is the imaginary ...

9. Euler's identity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

   In mathematics, Euler's identity[note 1] (also known as Euler's equation) is the equality where. is pi, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Euler's identity is named after the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler. It is a special case of Euler's formula when evaluated for .
