Euler in Mathcad

Mathcad has many functions and constants named after mathematicians and scientists - Chebyshev, Runge, Kutta, Kelvin, Sinus, Ampere, etc.
But I did not find there the name of the greatest mathematician - Euler. We need to fix this and make the Euler function built-in Mathcad for the simplest numerical solution of the ODE.
Especially now, due to the high calculation speed, there is a return to simple algorithms - KISS!

Sinus?

Its not named after a mathematician or scientist!

Sinus comes from the latin word sinus, which means: bay, gulf, bent surface, lap, bosom, breast.

Especially that last translation gives special meaning to cosinus...

Sorry, I put Sinus on the list on purpose to test you! This is what I sometimes do with my students to see if they are following my lecture.😉

When I was a student, the first classroom equipped with TVs appeared at my university. It was an electrical engineering classroom. On this occasion, even a note appeared in the main Soviet newspaper. The note ended like this: "The lecturer presses a button and a Hysteresis loop appears on the TV screen." The word hysteresis was capitalized. Colleagues approached this lecturer and asked: "How is old Hysteresis doing there?"
