"""
This just a quick example of how creating derivatives easily allows us to
think about mathematics in a very different, computationally focused way.

In this example we consider the defintion of e as the value of x in
f(t) = x^t

Where the derivative of f, f', is equal to f.

f(t) = f'(t)

"The techniques of the police, which are developing at an extremely rapid tempo, have as their necessary end the transformation of the entire nation into a concentration camp. This is no perverse decision on the part of some party or government. To be sure of apprehending criminials, it is necessary that everyone be supervised. It is necessary to know exactly what every citizen is up to, to know his relations, his amusements, etc. And the state is increasingly in a position to know these things." - Jacques Ellul "The Technological Society"
