NAME

Acme::Pi - Mmm, pie

VERSION

version 3.14159265358979

SYNOPSIS

    use Acme::Pi;

    my $area = $π * $radius**2;

DESCRIPTION

This distribution was created to celebrate Pi Day 2014, as well as to demonstrate yet another example of a pathological $VERSION.

Additionally, it exports a single variable, $π, defined as:

    atan2(1,1) * 4;

This module also defines its own $VERSION as π. It is intended that version parsers in the toolchain (Module::Metadata, ExtUtils::MakeMaker's MM->parse_version, Parse::PMFile) should be capable of statically parsing this package's $VERSION.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This module was brought to you by the 2014 QA Hackathon in Lyon, France, as well as the number π.
