{ This is a small program which is faster than any of the writings on the echo on calculating Pi. It uses some Calculus (In an exam I did 2/3 weeks ago). } Program CalcPi; {$N+,E+} Var Result : Extended; A : Byte; begin Result := 3; {Needs a approximation of Pi} For A := 1 to 3 do {Only needs three goes to get as accurate as possible with TP variables.} begin RESULT := RESULT - Sin(result) * Cos(result); {this is a simplified version of Newton Raphson Elimation using Tan(Pi)=0} Writeln(RESULT : 0 : 18); {18 decimal places - as good as TP gets } end; end.
