Dr. Lipsitz "et al".'s findings also showed that those afflicted with emetophobia often have difficulties comfortably leading a normal life. Many find that they
Proof that e is irrational Proof that e is irrational The number "e" was introduced by Jacob Bernoulli in 1683. More than half a century later, Euler, who had been a student of Jacob's younger brother Johann, proved that "e" is irrational; that is, that it cannot be expressed as the quotient of two integers. Euler wrote the first proof of the fact that "e" is irrational in 1737 (but the text was only published seven years later). He computed the representation of "e" as a simple continued fraction, which is Since this continued fraction is infinite and every rational number has a terminating continued
