Die Verf. beweisen eine Formel \[ \bigg(1+\dfrac{x}{n}\bigg)^n = S_n + \sum_{p=1}^{n-1} \bigg(\dfrac{-1}{n}\bigg)^p \sum_{r=1}^{p} C_{p,r} x^{p+r} S_{n-p-r}; \] dabei ist \(S_n\) die \(n\)-te Teilsumme der Exponentialreihe, die \(C_{p,r}\) sind gewisse Brüche. Daraus läßt sich die Abschätzung \[ \left|\bigg(1+\dfrac{x}{n}\bigg)^n-S_n\right| \leqq \dfrac{X^2e^X}{2n} \bigg(1-\dfrac{X}{n}\bigg)^{-1} \bigg(1-\dfrac{X^2}{n}\bigg)^{-1} \qquad (\sqrt n > X=|x|) \] folgern.
