Culture, General Things, Mathematics, Real Numbers, Algebraic Numbers, Irrational Number, PI
PI is the ratio of diameter and circumference of a circle. It is a Transcendental Number.
Culture, General Things, Mathematics, Real Numbers, Algebraic Numbers, Irrational Number, e
e. Euler's Number is 2.718254. It is usually written as 'e'. It is a Transcendental Number.
Euler's Number is the number to which compounding, as in compount interest, converges.
For example, if interest is paid at 100% then after one year £1 becomes £2.
If the interest is charged at 50% twice then the interest will be ( 1 * 1.5 ) * 1.5 = 1.5**2 = 2.25
If the interest is charged at 25% four times then the interest will be ( ( ( ( 1 * 1.25 ) * 1.25 ) * 1.25 ) * 1.25 )= 1.25**4 = 2.44
If the interest is charged at 8.33% twelve times then the interest will be 1.0833**12 = 2.612
If the interest is charged at 4.2% twenty-four times year then the interest will be ( 1.042**4 ) = 2.67
If the interest is charged at 0.1% one thousand times then the interest will be ( 1.001**1000 ) = 2.72
If the interest is charged at an infinite number of times then the interest will be ( 1.00/∞ )**∞ = 2.718254... which is Euler's number.
Euler's Number is the sum of the infinite series ( 1 / n! ) ie 1 + 1 + 1/2 + 1/6 + 1/24 + 1/120 + 1/720 + 1/5040 .... = 2.718281828.
