The Exponential Function

[zepliveson]

me dunno:)

[thejameskan]

great video thanks

[TheKcsmithy]

some sweet info here

[jjclassjj]

some sweet info here

[distractionxx]

you have some great stuff here

[clairebehun]

very interesting video thanks

[WAQAR3011]

Very good and great explanation Thank you very much

[flamingaxe791]

What a beautiful man

[st0nedoldman]

O_O *explodes*

[docdub23]

Thank you, great video

[OhHiMeMatt]

Holy shit this guy is great

[EclecticSceptic]

I live off these videos. Gil Strang is such a good teacher.

[Sandro6080]

- The mathematics is fascinating, even a subject that can seem simple, it deserves a lot of respect because there are more things submerged that we can imagine, teacher has been attending their classes and I have been amazed, me secondary teacher and I notice that the students possess a lot of difficulty, and these videos has been of stimulant, thank you.

Bonus!

[Chill197]

Thank you MIT I was woried that my education would be cut short due to not having any money.

[MichelLongtin]

what a passionnate teacher!!! What a great math professor!!

Michel

[1965Richie]

Totally Baffled Me!!!

[milad2g]

I really admire him and MIT for contribute these valuable videos. I think he will remain in the history of math forever.

[s2003m0205]

i wish he is my math prof

[MrAnnu93]

i liked particularly how the man derived the infinite series for e power x

[rampriyadarshini]

awesome!!!...just loved it.... :)

[thom188]

better lesson about exp ever!! thank you!!

[PATSICK]

very high quality instruction; this is a real public service. check out the Chemistry and Physics lectures; they're really wonderful.

[musa78692]

professor strang you are just amaizing!

[jasonleakey2005]

那必需的, MIT, 人类的希望~

[shindowyu]

还有中国人啊。

[panzer005]

终于明白e是怎么来的了！

[famster92]

could anybody tell me what calculus is, please?

I don't understand, ty

[davidsfc9]

@famster92 i suggest you to start in the lecture Big picture of calculus, that lecture is great

[andurilfromnarsil]

So, why exactly do we need to prove (e^x)*(e^X) = e^(x+X) using the series representation of e^x? Aren't the rules for operations with exponents enough for this (I mean basic algebra)? I'm really confused here...

[davidsfc9]

@andurilfromnarsil cuz this function comes from calculus and diif equations, and as he mentioned satifies the rules of basic algebra, wich is a very important fact (cool fact as well)

[miaohai]

@andurilfromnarsil I think that e^x is a defined function ,you haven't known (e^x)*(e^X) = e^(x+X) ,so you have to certify it ,so you can know e^x is just a^x as we know,do you agree me ?

[jessi90ful]

omg

[fragnar]

this is a great explanation, I don't remember our teacher doing this for us in Calculus...

[mdx18]

Great lecture. It reminds me of the time when I studied calculus

[CWojewodzic]

Much thanks; much, much thanks.

[RyuDarragh]

Ah, but algebra had its revenge by imposing limits on calculus, didn't it? :)

[frankolizeth]

Very good lecture.

[vaibhav1803]

what is he..?

[hhhuuu14]

ha this reminds me of my A lvl time, when i hv to take pure math, n this is one of my favourite topics :)

[IronWolfWood]

Genial and Great idea, I always used Taylor series to derivate this formula.

[PHRANQ2K2]

I never imagined that i could _ever_ attend to a class at MIT with such a great professor.

[maroinx]

thanks 4 ur Great Work

My Respect man

you are a Hero ...

next year i have to past an exam in maths (Bac - Sience Maths ) and we have this Function in our program ... i'm sure i will back for it

thanks a lot 4 for ur Great work again ( Noble Work) !!

[MultiBrados]

@maroinx Good luck for your Bac, you live in Morocco I guess ;-)

Well that's a coincidence.

[maroinx]

@MultiBrados thx man ..=)

ur Guess is true i'm from marocco ..

[gabrielfinol]

that was a great lecture!

[edtronic]

way ra go mit
