Is there an intuitive "geometric" illustration for the value of e?
Post Body
I can get (or teach my kids) a "feel" for pi = 3.1415 by putting a piece of string around a circle, then measuring it to be a little more than 3x the diameter. Or by using one of those many gifs available of a circle unwinding. Is there something similar I can use to get an "intuitive illustration" of e = 2.1728?
