Textbook Question

Chapter 1, Problem 3PP

The value of π can be computed according to the following formula:

π 4 = 1 − 1 3 + 1 5 − 1 7 + 1 9 − ⋯

Write an algorithm to compute π. Because the formula is an infinite series and an algorithm must stop after a finite number of steps, you should stop when you have the result determined to six significant digits.
