The number e is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828 that is the base of the natural logarithm and exponential function.It is sometimes called Euler's number, after the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler, though this can invite confusion with Euler numbers, or with Euler's constant, a different constant typically denoted .
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.
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.

Using the same approach, in 2013, M. Ram Murty and A. Zaytseva showed that the generalized Euler constants have the same property, [3] [44] [45] where the generalized Euler constant are defined as = (= = ()), where is a fixed list of prime numbers, () = if at least one of the primes in is a prime factor of , and ...

In summary, it has been shown that partitions into an even number of distinct parts and an odd number of distinct parts exactly cancel each other, producing null terms 0x n, except if n is a generalized pentagonal number = = /, in which case there is exactly one Ferrers diagram left over, producing a term (−1) k x n. But this is precisely ...
