The information you shared is something maybe 1 out of 50.000 bachelor's graduates worldwide know, despite almost all being exposed to calculus or college algebra in their lifetime.

I worked for a bank where savings account interest was compounded continuously. I used both Euler’s Number e and natural log ln quite frequently. Your explanation made sense to me.

I remember once a financial journalist, might have been the BBC don't recall, took the terms of interest to a maths profession at a top university, might have been Oxford, and asked him (or her) to evaluate it. It took him four hours. Could have been three or five. I'm guessing he was just presented with insufficient information but still, it obviously wasn't straightforward.

The reason we choose 100%(100% = 100/100 = 1) is because 1 is the multiplicative identity over the real numbers(and all of the numbers you will ever use)
Every exponential function F has pair of functions of which one of them has smaller factor (base) and it represents instantaneous growth rate of the function F, and the other one has bigger base (factor) which represents continuous growth factor of function F. Thus function's instantaneous growth rate is it's instantaneous counterpart's discrete growth rate i.e: 1.051278^x have instantaneous growth rate of 5 %, the discrete rate of (1.05^x) And any 2 exponential functions' instantaneous growth rates are proportional to the exponential ratio of their factors: f(x) = a^x g(x) = b^x b = a^r r = log(b)/log(a) = ln(b) if instantaneous growth rate of f(x) is p: then for g(x) it's equal to r*p. Explanation with derivatives: b = a^r then g(x) = b^x = a^rx = (a^x)^r = (f(x))^r (f(x) to the pow r). And instantaneous growth rate is actually a constant that occures in the derivative of exponential function which is for f(x) is simply f'(x) = k1*f(x), for g'(x) acrrording to chain rule is: g'(x) = g(x) * k2 ((f(x))^r)' => r*f(x)^(r-1)*f'(x) = r*f(x)^r/f(x)*f(x)*k1 => r*g(x)*k1 = g(x) * k2 => r*k1 = k2
If U want to why growth rate is actually derivative for exponential functions watch 3Blue1Brown's video (3:57): ruclips.net/video/m2MIpDrF7Es/видео.html I could'n yet figured out proportionality relationship between discrete and continuous growth rates of functions. This trio of functions ..... I(x) D(x) C(x) ...... chained in both direction infinitely. Every single one of them is instantaneous equivalent of the one on it's right and continuous equivalent of the one on it's left. In other words, every single function has instantaneous equivalent on it's left and continuous equivalent on it's right.
I've got a one-sentence description for "e". It goes as: "The number e helps quantify the decay rate for simple dissipative processes in nature". There are countless examples for these so-called "simple dissipative processes", which behave in an asymptotic fashion. - The time-rate temperature decrease of a given volume of hot liquid (a cup of coffee). - The time-rate level decrease of water in a bathtub after the plug is removed from the drain. - The time-rate amplitude decrease in a mechanical oscillation system (mass-spring, pendulum, a swing, vibrating string under tension, etc.).
The most popular definitions for e: The one in this video: e = lim(n to inf) of (1 + 1/n)^n The infinite sum of 1/n! starting at 0 (n! = 1*2*3*4*.....*n) e is base for the natural logarithm e is the base for the exponential function exp(x) where the derivative of that function is also exp(x) so f(x) = f'(x)

There's a slight problem with your opening screen. Four constants are shown, all but the third of which are pure numbers. Planck's constant, h, is not a number; it's an angular momentum. So unlike i, π, and e, its numeric value depends on the choice of physical units, which from the point of view of physics, is arbitrary. The value given here is in the "mks" system, and so, needs to be 'finished' with "kg•m²/s." Also, at the 20-min mark, eˣ isn't for x%, but for 100x% growth rate. Fred
I haven't watched it yet, but I just feel like it would have more impact if he at least would have started the one simple sentence at the beginning. I mean, that's the only way to gauge if he succeeded or not, right?
Summarizing: e connects discrete to continuous growth in self-reflecting growing systems. In a period where discrete growth leads to doubling of the amount or number (factor 2), e would be the factor to be obtained if growth was completely continuous, in that same period of time.
@19:59 There's a mistake: It's "100 times x percent", not x percent! Biggest trip-hazard with percentages that there is: forgetting that it's a hundredth-factor!
You seem to have accidentally given one of the great argument for why τ (the ratio of a circle's circumference to its radius) is more practical than π (τ/2), right at 18:31 !
@@fullfungo You need for a^x to be defined for all x, and since 0^0 is undefined (I know taking the limit implies it should be 1, but that still requires a limit) you can immediately rule out 0 as a possible value for a.

What I hate about you tube is that is seems to universally try to make things simple and intuitive. The truth is that some things are better understood in their complexity and better seen by letting go of your intuitions. Simple isn’t always better, intuitive isn’t always truer.
So we should make things more complex to understand them better? That doesn't sound very intuitive to me. Could you give us a nice, easy example to illustrate your hypothesis?
It is also unfortunate that you took the bacterium reproducing as an example for "self-referential growth". Because, other than "compound interest rates" (8:38...9:41) bacteria are counted with whole numbers: 1->2->4->8->16..., while interest rates are represented, as real numbers. There are serious mathematical implications: we can not integrate, differentiate find the maximum/minimum, and importantly find the limes as n-->oo for the discrete numbers of bacteria, like it is nonsense, when 2 bacteria would reproduce pi-number of bacteria, or infinite number of bacteria in between!! The foolish chemists usually make the same mistake, when they counted their atoms/molecules with whole numbers and go ahead to apply the maths for real numbers!
I don't think there is any reason at all to bring the approximation into it. The other stuff is great. But I think I can do better. I'm going to try and slap something together.

Excellent explanation - thanks!
Minor one at 19:59: e^x is not self-growth at x % but x*100 %.
Every exponential function F has pair of functions of which one of them has smaller factor (base) and it represents instantaneous growth rate of the function F, and the other one has bigger base (factor) which represents continuous growth factor of function F. Thus function's instantaneous growth rate is it's instantaneous counterpart's discrete growth rate i.e:
1.051278^x have instantaneous growth rate of 5 %, the discrete rate of (1.05^x)
And any 2 exponential functions' instantaneous growth rates are proportional to the exponential ratio of their factors:
f(x) = a^x
g(x) = b^x
b = a^r
r = log(b)/log(a) = ln(b)
if instantaneous growth rate of f(x) is p:
then for g(x) it's equal to r*p.
Explanation with derivatives: b = a^r then g(x) = b^x = a^rx = (a^x)^r = (f(x))^r (f(x) to the pow r). And instantaneous growth rate is actually a constant that occures in the derivative of exponential function which is for f(x) is simply f'(x) = k1*f(x), for g'(x) acrrording to chain rule is:
g'(x) = g(x) * k2
((f(x))^r)' =>
r*f(x)^(r-1)*f'(x) = r*f(x)^r/f(x)*f(x)*k1 =>
r*g(x)*k1 = g(x) * k2 =>
r*k1 = k2
If U want to why growth rate is actually derivative for exponential functions watch 3Blue1Brown's video (3:57): ruclips.net/video/m2MIpDrF7Es/видео.html
I could'n yet figured out proportionality relationship between discrete and continuous growth rates of functions.
This trio of functions
..... I(x) D(x) C(x) ......
chained in both direction infinitely. Every single one of them is instantaneous equivalent of the one on it's right and continuous equivalent of the one on it's left. In other words, every single function has instantaneous equivalent on it's left and continuous equivalent on it's right.
Well done.

e is the base for the exponential function exp(x) where the derivative of that function is also exp(x) so f(x) = f'(x)
or the solution to the ivp y'=y, y(0)=1
you can also change that limit to the form e=lim u->1 of u^(1/u-1), which is a lot easier to compute
Outstanding! Thank you. As a EE I’ve worked with e for many years.
