The value of Exponential Function e^x can be expressed using following Taylor Series.<\/p>\n

e^x = 1 + x\/1! + x^2\/2! + x^3\/3! + ……<\/p>\n

How to efficiently calculate the sum of above series?
\nThe series can be re-written as<\/p>\n

e^x = 1 + (x\/1) (1 + (x\/2) (1 + (x\/3) (……..) ) )
\nLet the sum needs to be calculated for n terms, we can calculate sum using following loop.<\/p>\n

for (i = n – 1, sum = 1; i > 0; –i )
\nsum = 1 + x * sum \/ i;
\nFollowing is implementation of the above idea.<\/p>\n
