\textbf{can you say this more clearly and concisely? }Your readers probably don't need to be told this much detail, particularly if you rewrite the shot equation as $<\delta i^2> / \Delta f $ vs $2 i_{dc}$ with a slope of $e$.   Our value was $1.64 \cdot 10^{-19} $1.649  \pm 7.0 0.007  \cdot 10^{ -22}$ coulombs, 10^{-19} \textrm{ Coulombs}$,  where the error comes from the mean squared error. The discrepancy between our value and the currently accepted standard value for the charge on the electron is less than $2.4 \%$.
