What is the derivative of e^x? Why? Is this the only function with such a derivative?

Salutations friend!

The derivative of e^x is also e^x. In general, d/dx (e^x) = d/dx(x) e^x This can be applied to innumerable kinds of questions. For instance, the derivative of e^2x = 2e^x. You know what I mean.

Hey Eisa-Beygi, thanks man. That really cleared things up for me.

actually if you were to evaluate the derivative of e^2x it would be 2e^2x

Yes. My bad. I forgot to indicate the two there. Cheers!
