Limit and nagetive infinity

I know that limit of (1+1/n)^n as n approches infinity is e.the limit of (1+1/n)^n as n approches nagetive infinity is also e,but how do i prove that?

There are 10 kinds of people in the world,people who understand binary and people who don't.

Do you know how to prove that

?

If you do this, you can let x be -1, and you will get the required convergence (1/e).
