Mathematical constants
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Mpmath supports arbitrary-precision computation of various common (and less
|
|
common) mathematical constants. These constants are implemented as lazy
|
|
objects that can evaluate to any precision. Whenever the objects are used as
|
|
function arguments or as operands in arithmetic operations, they automagically
|
|
evaluate to the current working precision. A lazy number can be converted to a
|
|
regular ``mpf`` using the unary ``+`` operator, or by calling it as a
|
|
function::
|
|
|
|
>>> from mpmath import pi, mp
|
|
>>> pi
|
|
<pi: 3.14159~>
|
|
>>> 2*pi
|
|
mpf('6.2831853071795862')
|
|
>>> +pi
|
|
mpf('3.1415926535897931')
|
|
>>> pi()
|
|
mpf('3.1415926535897931')
|
|
>>> mp.dps = 40
|
|
>>> pi
|
|
<pi: 3.14159~>
|
|
>>> 2*pi
|
|
mpf('6.28318530717958647692528676655900576839434')
|
|
>>> +pi
|
|
mpf('3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419717')
|
|
>>> pi()
|
|
mpf('3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419717')
|
|
|
|
The predefined objects ``j`` (imaginary unit), ``inf`` (positive infinity) and
|
|
``nan`` (not-a-number) are shortcuts to ``mpc`` and ``mpf`` instances with
|
|
these fixed values.
