really awesome solution
Same as I did
+1 Exactly the same as what I did.
What's the fancy R? Sorry if this is a dumb question XD
@Trevor Arashiro Real part of the expression inside the braces
Nice solution
What about imaginary part??

The imaginary part of n = 0 ∑ ∞ e n ⋅ n ! e i n will be equal to n = 0 ∑ ∞ e n ⋅ n ! sin n
This is so awesome!
I will keep this trick of "changing into exponent using Euler's formula and taking the real part" in mind

We will use the Euler's formula ( e i θ = cos θ + i sin θ ) a good many times while arriving at the desired closed form.
We will also use the Maclaurin series for e x → n = 0 ∑ ∞ n ! x n = e x .
Let us begin our solution →
S = e 0 ⋅ 0 ! cos 0 + e 1 ⋅ 1 ! cos 1 + e 2 ⋅ 2 ! cos 2 + ⋯ ⋯ = n = 0 ∑ ∞ e n ⋅ n ! cos n = ℜ { n = 0 ∑ ∞ e n ⋅ n ! e i n } = ℜ { n = 0 ∑ ∞ n ! e i n − n } = ℜ { n = 0 ∑ ∞ n ! ( e i − 1 ) n } = ℜ { e e i − 1 } = ℜ { e e i / e } = ℜ { e ( cos 1 + i sin 1 ) / e } = ℜ { e ( cos 1 ) / e ⋅ e i ( ( sin 1 ) / e ) } = ℜ { e ( cos 1 ) / e ( cos ( e sin 1 ) + i sin ( e sin 1 ) ) } = e ( cos 1 ) / e cos ( e sin 1 ) ≈ 1 . 1 6
