I found a way to approx e while being bored in calculus 1 class.

1.1^1=1.1
1.01^100=2.70
1.001^1000=2.716
1.000001^1000000=2.718280
1.000000001^1000000000=2.7182818270999…

e=2.718281828459045

It'll stay accurate up to the amount of digits after the decimal it seems. Has this already been discovered and can anyone give a proof if it has been? btw this is my first post on 4chan.
