Definition (6.2*) Let be the number such that 1ln e

The number e... Let be the number such that
………
1ln e
On the other hand...Let be the inverse function of
In particular, we have
xx ))exp(ln(
At this point,...We have not establish any relationship between the number and the function .
So, how are they related?
, i.e. , i.e. , where is an rational number, we get
Then,… xx ))exp(ln( 1ln e

So,… and give the same values for rational
numbers However, is undefined for irrational
number (not yet!)
It makes sense to define…For all ,

Remarks is not a number, it is a concept. In particular, it does not make sense to
write: Again, you can blame whoever told you
that this is ok. But it is your responsibility to do the right thing from now on.
