In this assignment you will estimate the mathematical constant e. You should create a function called calculuate_e which receives one parameter called precision that should specify the number of decimal points of accuracy.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here is my code: <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

def calculate_e(precision):<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

x = precision<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

e = (1+1\/x)**x<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

return float(e)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

precision=int(input(“How many decimals do you want?”))<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

a = calculate_e(precision)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

round(a,precision)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

print(“The estimate of the constant e is: “,a)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
