PI()
Description
- This function gives the value of .
- The is a mathematical constant with a value approximate to 3.14159.
- It is denoted by the Greek letter .
- is commonly defined as the ratio of a circle's circumference C to its diameter d.
- So , the ratio is constant, and it is not considering the circle's size.
- is a transcendental number and irrational number.
- Being an irrational number, cannot be expressed exactly as a ratio of any two integers .
- But we can express as the fraction is approximate to the value , also no fraction can be its exact value.
