  2. List of formulae involving π - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formulae_involving_π

    More formulas of this nature can be given, as explained by Ramanujan's theory of elliptic functions to alternative bases. Perhaps the most notable hypergeometric inversions are the following two examples, involving the Ramanujan tau function τ {\displaystyle \tau } and the Fourier coefficients j {\displaystyle \mathrm {j} } of the J-invariant ...

  3. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159.The number π appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics.

  4. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    Machin-like formulas for π can be constructed by finding a set of integers , =, where all the prime factorisations of ⁠ + ⁠, taken together, use a number of distinct primes , and then using either linear algebra or the LLL basis-reduction algorithm to construct linear combinations of arctangents of . For example, in the Størmer formula ...

    The digits of pi extend into infinity, and pi is itself an irrational number, meaning it can’t be truly represented by an integer fraction (the one we often learn in school, 22/7, is not very ...

    The formula for the profitability index is: PI = Present Value of Future Cash Flows / Initial Investment. Pros. PI can offer you several advantages when evaluating investment opportunities. Here ...

  7. Proof that π is irrational - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_π_is_irrational

    Conclusion: Since () > and ⁡ > for < < (because is the smallest positive zero of the sine function), Claims 1 and 2 show that () + is a positive integer. Since 0 ≤ x ( a − b x ) ≤ π a {\displaystyle 0\leq x(a-bx)\leq \pi a} and 0 ≤ sin ⁡ x ≤ 1 {\displaystyle 0\leq \sin x\leq 1} for 0 ≤ x ≤ π , {\displaystyle 0\leq x\leq \pi ...

  8. Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe...

    The Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula (BBP formula) is a formula for π. It was discovered in 1995 by Simon Plouffe and is named after the authors of the article in which it was published, David H. Bailey, Peter Borwein, and Plouffe. [1] Before that, it had been published by Plouffe on his own site. [2] The formula is:

  9. Pi function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_function

    In mathematics, at least four different functions are known as the pi or Pi function: (pi function) – the prime-counting function (Pi function) – the gamma function when offset to coincide with the factorial; Rectangular function – the Pisano period
