Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

Idk why there were flagged posts, whatever
Also the one that @Suspnded_Arr0w_Shaft used can be simplified, there is a built in function to see if a number is even or odd, so you can use that ‘stead of a new property, also for both sides the two 1s can be simplified
Wait
The way I see it there are divisions
If it’s the division symbol you gave something that approaches four

Alright, here’s some notes:

When plugging the formula into desmos, it can be seen to give a perfectly accurate approximation of pi:

The reason it’s not perfectly accurate is probably because of decimal imprecision in Gimkit, or something like that.

Remember that this will be computing by approximating the arctans with a custom number system to a high degree, then adding/multiplying/subtracting them.

Would that mean Machin’s wouldn’t work in this scenario? Or that we just fine tune the values?

We need a decimal storage system either way
