Find an Inverse for the Exponential Integral function

I have a program where I have to find x. But I have to use the special function Ei - the exponential integral, and x is inside the argument of Ei. So Python isn't recognizing it. ei(mx) = te^r + ei(c) Here the RHS is a constant alongwith m. I…

Exponential growth doubling processor speed

According to Wikipedia article on Exponential growth E.g. if a slow processor can solve problems of size x in time t, then a processor twice as fast could only solve problems of size x+constant in the same time t. My question is, how do we…

Why does my approximation of Exponential using Taylor Series expansion return "inf"?

This is my homework: I haven't tried to write the part of Natural Logarithm because I can't solve the part of Exponential. This is the the approximations of Exponential in C using Taylor Series expansion I wrote. However, it returns inf. What did I…
