What is the number "e" and where does it come from?

9 жыл бұрынe (2.718281828...), also known as Euler's number, is a critically important number in mathematics. It forms the basis of the exponential function and the natural logarithm, and like π it crops up in innumerable places (even where you wouldn't expect it).

The single best way of explaining "e" by anyone, anywhere. And I believe this is how the number e was originally discovered. Truly excellent teaching. These students have no idea how genuinely lucky they are. Around the world literally a billion people have learned the number e and how to use it in calculus and other maths courses, and have been using it for years with still no clue how this mystical thing came about. These kids will have no fear of using it and will totally get it's significance and be able to teach it to anyone. Bravo Eddie Woo.
@deanhuang6841 Жыл бұрын
I remember when I asked my Math TA why is the derivative of e^x still e^x? I was just asking for the answer, but she thought I was getting all philosophical so she spent 5 minutes explaining this concept hahaha. Now that I'm older and wiser, the simple explanation is what Eddie said: "The rate at which something grows/decays is proportional to itself". THAT'S why the derivative of e^x is itself...
@yami_the_witch Жыл бұрын
The way e was discovered is because of Calculus. Mathematicians wanted to find a function where it would be it's own derivative. So you have to solve the differential equation f(x) = f'(x), and out pops e if you do some complex mathematics. All of the rest are then discoveries afterwards.

Yes, too bad, but in most of the US it is not coincidence. State licensure requirements, supported by unions, mandate college degrees in education. As a general rule, talented math students will not put up with simplistic education courses. As a well known writer explained, when visiting colleges he saw STEM majors working on problem sets, while the education majors were cutting letters using safety scissors on poster board.

Great explanation. Just want to add that the key principle here is *compound interests* and letting _the interests generated earlier to produce higher results_ , e.g. generate interest after one semester rather than one year, generate monthly instead of semesterly, etc. This allows the principal itself to grow as the base for the next interest calculation. E.g. after 1 semester 50% (0.5) interest generates a result of (principal 1 + interest 50%) and then this result combined immediately generates a new interest; "the clock starts ticking" immediately the next day after one semester, no need to wait until one year (read: increasing the value of n). This compound interests on smaller timeframes (increased n) are resulting in dynamic base values, therefore the growth becomes *exponential: the growth is given on previous growth* .

I quit math when I was 14 due to a bad teacher and chose a branch of studies that didn’t include math because of that. One of the greatest regrets of my life. I so wish I had a teacher anywhere near Eddie. Superb didactics! His pupils have a treasure in him

This is my second favourite lesson.... with Newton’s law of cooling being my first. Too bad many non-math administration would dismiss this as “too lecture-like”.

Thank you for an awesome, brief, clear, straight to the point explanation. :) I haven't done advanced maths since highschool 23 years ago, and most sources I found on the subject required me to start from page 1.

My father is a great mathematics teacher but He is on another level. Just love to listen the concepts and still feel like a kid after even completing the graduation. Love from India

By using formula, A= P(1+r)^n If P=1. // $1 in the bank A=(1+r)^n Bank calculates by minutes in a year. r= 1/the time period so r=1/(365x24x60) n=time period. so, A=(1+(1/(365x24x60))^(365x24x60) = e^1 = 2.71828

Simply amazing!!! Exponential finally makes sense. Compounding to a limit.... I really wish we have more teacher geniuses like Mr. Woo Those students can easily ace any math test no prep needed - going to class is more than enough
