Implementing of PI (3.141.....) into "Operators"

Dear developers,

For the next update I would have a suggestion: I think it would be a good thing to implement PI into “Operators”, if that is possible.

PI? Not sure what that means? Possible Inputs?

Pi is the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of a circle. It is often approximated to 3.14, but in reality does not terminate.

Sorry, of course I meant this “Pi” of mathematics, usually shown using the Greek letter!

Support, but there's a workaround, it's just a little bit hard to remember if you're not very good at it.

Also e. Phi would be good too but would be just (1+sqrt5)/2.

Support, but workaroundable. It is hard for some people to remember those digits, so… support.

(π::operators)
It would be cool. Support, I guess.

Support. Also, I like your signatures

22/7 usually works unless you are doing very precise measurements.

22/7 is inaccurate!!! Pi is not 3.142857…! It's 3.14159…! Use 355/113 if you want to be more precise (credit to the ancient Chinese).

Semi-support..

Support, but for now you can use rough fractions or remember as many digits of it as you choose.

Support, but it technically would never be accurate because for the computer to compute it it must make it terminate at some point.

Support! It would be very simple to use… Like a pi demonstration program using circumference…

They could just use the first few digits. Rounding exists for a reason.XD

Yeah… I use 3.14159265358979 whenever I need pi.
