e
Description
Returns Euler’s number e
, a mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.718281828459045
. This value is limited to 15 decimal places.
Syntax
Example
Use case: Model exponential growth
Use e
in combination with logarithms and powers to calculate predictive growth models. In this example, we calculate the growth rate and then predict the value 10 hours into the future.
create prediction_in_ten_hours from (initial_value * power(e(), growth_rate * (time_since_start_hours + 10)))
Output
{
"initial_value": 500,
"current_value": 1000,
"time_since_start_hours": 10,
"growth_rate": 0.0693,
"prediction_in_ten_hours": 1999.41
