We can use the following formula to calculate Pi:

Here's a Python code snippet that demonstrates how to use this formula to calculate Pi:
main.py268 chars14 lines
In this code, we define a function calculate_pi
that takes a num_terms
argument that specifies how many terms of the series to use in the calculation. Inside the function, we iterate over the odd integers up to num_terms * 2
and add/subtract their reciprocals from our running total pi
. Finally, we multiply pi
by 4 to get the estimate of Pi. By increasing the value of num_terms
, we can get a more accurate estimate of Pi.
