Definition:Euler's Number/Decimal Expansion

Definition

The decimal expansion of Euler's number $e$ starts:

$2 \cdotp 71828 \, 18284 \, 59045 \, 23536 \, 02874 \, 71352 \, 66249 \, 77572 \, 47093 \, 69995 \ldots$

This sequence is A001113 in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (N. J. A. Sloane (Ed.), 2008).
