u Calculate e

A simple mathematical formula for e is

where n is allowed to go to infinity. This can actually yield very accurate approximations of e using relatively small values of n.

Output

Output the approximations of e generated by the above formula for the values of n from 0 to 9. The beginning of your output should appear similar to that shown below.

Sample Output

n e
- -----------
0 1
1 2
2 2.5
3 2.666666667
4 2.708333333

Analysis

The range of the number is very small, only 0 to 9, store all the factorial of n, and then calculate then one by one.

Code

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {
	printf("n e\n- -----------\n");
	int f[15];
	f[0] = 1;
	double ans = 1;
	cout << 0 << " " << 1 << endl;
	for(int i = 1; i <= 9; i ++) {
		f[i] = f[i - 1] * i;
		ans += 1.0 / f[i];
		if(i == 1) printf("%d %.0f\n", i, ans);
		else if(i == 2) printf("%d %.1f\n", i, ans);
		else printf("%d %.9f\n", i, ans);
	}
	return 0;
