Math Constants
Question: How do I handle mathematical constants in JavaScript?
Answer: Some mathematical constants are predefined in JavaScript.
You can write these constants as follows:
Math.PI // pi = 3.14159265...
Math.E // e = 2.71828182...
Math.LOG2E // log of e base 2
Math.LOG10E // log of e base 10
Math.LN2 // log of 2 base e
Math.LN10 // log of 10 base e
Math.SQRT2 // square root of 2
Math.SQRT1_2 // square root of 1/2
Thus, there is no need to remember the exact numerical value of
e or pi. Just use Math.E or Math.PI!
