Calculating Pi in 5 lines of Python
1 point by swagasaurus-rex 5 months ago | 2 comments- westurner 5 months ago> Infinite series can't really be calculated to completion using a computer,
The sum of an infinite divergent series cannot be calculated with or without a computer.
The sum of an infinite convergent series can be calculated with:
Sequence > Limits and convergence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence#Limits_and_convergenc...1/(a-r)
Limit of a sequence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_sequence
SymPy docs > Limits of Sequences: https://docs.sympy.org/latest/modules/series/limitseq.html
> Provides methods to compute limit of terms having sequences at infinity.
