pi

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

pi -- 得到圆周率值

说明

float pi ( void )

返回圆周率的近似值。返回值的 float 精度是由 php.ini 中的 precision 指令确定。默认值是 14。你也可以使用 M_PI 常量,该常量产生与 pi() 完全相同的结果。

例子 1. pi()

<?php
echo pi(); // 3.1415926535898
echo M_PI; // 3.1415926535898
?>

For anyone wondering, the highest precision you can get for pi() or M_PI is 20 places after the decimal point, or 3.14159265358979323846.

Pi is often usefull in con/sin/tan functions..
There are also other Pi related constants.
These are most of them:

M_PI  = 3.14159265358979323846 // pi

// The following were added in PHP 4.0.0
M_PI_2 = 1.57079632679489661923 // pi/2
M_PI_4 = 0.78539816339744830962 // pi/4
M_1_PI = 0.31830988618379067154 // 1/pi
M_2_PI = 0.63661977236758134308 // 2/pi
M_SQRTPI = 1.77245385090551602729 // sqrt(pi) (Only in PHP 4.0.2+)
M_2_SQRTPI = 1.12837916709551257390 // 2/sqrt(pi)
