Some Techniques Of Differentiation

Abstract

Now that we have become acquainted with e we are able to consider many practical problems which would otherwise be extremely difficult if not quite impossible. This is because we are able to make use of a number of techniques and results of differentiation and integration which depend on the basic properties of e. In this and the next chapter we shall consider some of these methods, along with some others. Later in the book we shall see how they may be used to answer certain economic problems; but for the moment we shall devote ourselves strictly to the mathematics.
