Main Article Content

Abstract

This paper first introduces the Lambert  function and discuss some of its fundamental properties. Next, it establishes a process for computing or approximating the value of the Lambert  function at a given point. Furthermore, it presents several applications of the Lambert  function in constructing and solving problems in elementary mathematics, including solving exponential equations and determining the limits of sequences. Finally, a collection of illustrative problems are provided to demonstrate these applications.

Keywords

Exponential Equation, Lambert W Function, Newton’s Method, Sequence.
