QUESTION
I'm trying to create a formula for calculating PI using the Gregory-Leibniz series. I've created a for loop that's populating a new array with the individual values, but I need a way to then alternate between subtracting and adding each array item and then spit out the resulting number. Essentially, I need to get to something like this:
(4/1) - (4/3) + (4/5) - (4/7) + (4/9) - (4/11) + (4/13) - (4/15)
The following for loop is populating the new array correctly:
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Mar-09 at 21:12Keep an extra variable, isNeg = true
. On each iteration of the loop, just alternate it with isNeg = !isNeg;
.
