@ Narender Kumar ..What is continuous compounding?

In the formula, A represents the initial amount in the account. Continuously Compounded Interest is a great thing when you are earning it! Continuously compounded interest means that your principal is constantly earning interest and the interest keeps earning on the interest earned
