NAME¶
PDL::Constants -- basic compile time constants for PDL
DESCRIPTION¶
This module is used to define compile time constant values for PDL. It uses the
constant module for simplicity and availability. We'll need to sort out
exactly which constants make sense but PI and E seem to be fundamental.
SYNOPSIS¶
use PDL::Constants qw(PI E);
print 'PI is ' . PI . "\n";
print 'E is ' . E . "\n";
The ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter
DEGRAD¶
The The number of degrees of arc per radian (180/PI)
The base of the natural logarithms or Euler's number
The imaginary unit, " I*I == -1 "
The imaginary unit for engineers, " J*J == -1 "
