What's the best way to get the most accurate value for pi in a VBA
function?
Excel 2007 has a pi() worksheet function, but there doesn't appear to
be a corresponding VBA function. The best I could come up with is
C = 2 * Application.WorksheetFunction.Pi() * R
That works, but it's a litte messy.
This helped. Thank you.
By definition, pi = 4*arctan(1).
?4*atn(1)
3.14159265358979
Since the value of pi won't ever change (barring a fundamental change in the
universe) I just assign it to a constant if I need it:
Const PI = 3.14159265358979
