When it is used N or SetPrecision in expresions involving the natural number "e" Mathematica gives the output showing "e" as a numeric value i.e: int[]:=N[0.19884 Exp[-2.0000000037 t], 5] out[]:=0.19884 2.71828^(-2. t) or int[]:=SetPrecision[0.19884 Exp[-2.0000000037 t],3] out[]:=0.199 2.72^(-2. t) But I wish see in the output the simbolic notation of "e" better than the numeric value. Any help?
