Intro

The introduction states that the exponential function is the only function equal to its derivative. This isn't quite right; and constant multiple of the exponential function works too. I'll try to find a way to make it correct without being ugly. Warren Schudy 17:14, 9 January 2008 (CST)

some equations too small

I suggest reformatting the equations stuck in the text of paragraphs 1 and 4, because they are really to small to be easily read. Also, be sure to indent equations with the use of a leading semicolon or two. David E. Volk 10:20, 24 February 2008 (CST)
