				   1.WHY "e" IS SO SPECIAL?WHY ITS NATURAL?
2.WHY LOG BASE e CALLED NATURAL LOGARITHM?

										Dear Araku,
1. e is the unique real number such that the value of the derivative (slope of the tangent line) of the function f(x) = ex at the point x = 0 is exactly 1. he number e is irrational; it is not a ratio of integers. Furthermore, it is transcendental; it is not a root of any non-zero polynomial with rational coefficients.

2. loge is a "natural" log because it automatically  springs from, and appears so often in, mathematics. For example,  consider the problem of differentiating a logarithmic function:
$\frac{d}{dx}\log_b(x) = \frac{\log_b(e)}{x} =\frac{1}{x\ln(b)}$
If the base b equals e,  then the derivative is simply 1/x, and at x = 1 this  derivative equals 1. Another sense in which the base e logarithm  is the most natural is that it can be defined quite easily in terms of a  simple integral or Taylor series and this is not true of other  logarithms.
