What is e on calculator?
On a calculator display, E (or e) stands for exponent of 10, and it's always followed by another number, which is the value of the exponent. For example, a calculator would show the number 25 trillion as either 2.5E13 or 2.5e13. In other words, E (or e) is a short form for scientific notation.
How do I calculate e?
We've learned that the number e is sometimes called Euler's number and is approximately 2.71828. Like the number pi, it is an irrational number and goes on forever. The two ways to calculate this number is by calculating (1 + 1 / n)^n when n is infinity and by adding on to the series 1 + 1/1! + 1/2!
