    An excellent intro to the concept/raison d'être of e. Not too overwhelming with detail; just the basics.
    Makes it well aimed for those who have the "pre-requisites" to understand it, but haven't had e itself explained to them.

      Yes, and for that intended audience, it may be a gateway to all the other marvelous stuff about e.

    Great video we are covering logarithms and a student asked me where e comes from and I was like it has to deal with compound interest and that is all I got I think helps explain it much better but also very short and sweet to the point.

    There is a way to find the most functional value for "e": Find out how many "Plank Time" Intervals are in one year and plug that number into your interest bearing equation for $1.00.

    answer was something like
    6.3456e798.It was to do with the
