State
The continuous growth formula uses e as the base: A = Pe^(rt), the limit of compounding run at every instant.
Show
1000 at 6% continuous for 10 years: A = 1000e⁰·⁶ ≈ 1822.12 — a few dollars past the monthly compounder's 1819.40, with nothing left to squeeze.
Builds on
- Nothing — this is a starting point.
Unlocks
- Nothing yet depends on this.
