corrected:

p = e^{-lambda} for n=0 (because 0! = 1 by definition)

So solve for lambda in terms of p (or the constant 0.01), then substitute the definition of lambda and solve further.

lambda = ((t/log(N))*exp(Euler)*log(L))

p= e^{-lambda}

p=exp^{-((t/log(N))*exp(Euler)*log(L))}

OK, so take the (natural) log of both sides. (TeX note: e^{\gamma}, not e^{(Euler)}. "Euler" is what Pari calls it, "\gamma" is what TeX calls it.)

Remember, you're solving for t.

I don't know what that means. I didn't say you were assuming anything, nor that you were stopping any assumptions.

you say I'm solving for t without proof of that and my statement of the opposite yet you still claim it hence you assume it's true there's the assumption.
