Le premier million de chiffres du nombre d'Euler (e) - David E. McAdams

. .

Résumé :
Le nombre e, base du logarithme naturel, est connu depuis de nombreuses ann?es. La constante e a ?t? d?couverte par le math?maticien suisse Jacob Bernoulli alors qu'il ?tudiait les int?r?ts compos?s. Elle est nomm?e e en l'honneur de Leonard Euler. Les premi?res r?f?rences ? la constante ont ?t? publi?es en 1618 dans le tableau d'une annexe d'un ouvrage sur les logarithmes de John Napier. John Napier n'a pas r?ellement d?fini la constante, mais il l'a utilis?e. La d?couverte de la constante elle-m?me est attribu?e ? Jacob Bernoulli en 1683, qui a tent? de trouver la valeur de l'expression suivante (qui est ?gale ? e) : limite lorsque n tend vers l'infini de (1+1/n)^n....
