Work Step by Step
# 5.28 (Compute e) You can approximate e by using the following series:
# Write a program that displays the e value for i = 10000, 20000, . . ., and
# 100000. (Hint: Since , then is
# Initialize e and item to be 1 and keep adding a new item to e. The new item is
# the previous item divided by i for i = 2, 3, 4, . . . .)
e = 1
item = 1
for i in range(1, 100000 + 1):
item = item / i
e += item
if i == 10000 or i == 20000 or i == 30000 or i == 40000 or \
i == 50000 or i == 60000 or i == 70000 or i == 80000 or \
i == 90000 or i == 100000:
print("The e is " + str(e) + " for i = " + str(i))
