求π的最快方法是什么?

我正在寻找最快的方法来获得π的值，作为一个个人挑战。更具体地说，我使用的方法不涉及使用#define常量M_PI，或硬编码的数字。

下面的程序测试了我所知道的各种方法。从理论上讲，内联汇编版本是最快的选择，尽管显然不能移植。我将它作为一个基准，与其他版本进行比较。在我的测试中，使用内置函数，4 * atan(1)版本在GCC 4.2上是最快的，因为它自动将atan(1)折叠成一个常量。通过指定-fno-builtin, atan2(0， -1)版本是最快的。

下面是主要的测试程序(pitimes.c):

#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

#define ITERS 10000000
#define TESTWITH(x) {                                                       \
    diff = 0.0;                                                             \
    time1 = clock();                                                        \
    for (i = 0; i < ITERS; ++i)                                             \
        diff += (x) - M_PI;                                                 \
    time2 = clock();                                                        \
    printf("%s\t=> %e, time => %f\n", #x, diff, diffclock(time2, time1));   \
}

static inline double
diffclock(clock_t time1, clock_t time0)
{
    return (double) (time1 - time0) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
}

int
main()
{
    int i;
    clock_t time1, time2;
    double diff;

    /* Warmup. The atan2 case catches GCC's atan folding (which would
     * optimise the ``4 * atan(1) - M_PI'' to a no-op), if -fno-builtin
     * is not used. */
    TESTWITH(4 * atan(1))
    TESTWITH(4 * atan2(1, 1))

#if defined(__GNUC__) && (defined(__i386__) || defined(__amd64__))
    extern double fldpi();
    TESTWITH(fldpi())
#endif

    /* Actual tests start here. */
    TESTWITH(atan2(0, -1))
    TESTWITH(acos(-1))
    TESTWITH(2 * asin(1))
    TESTWITH(4 * atan2(1, 1))
    TESTWITH(4 * atan(1))

    return 0;
}

内联汇编的东西(fldpi.c)只适用于x86和x64系统:

double
fldpi()
{
    double pi;
    asm("fldpi" : "=t" (pi));
    return pi;
}

和一个构建脚本，构建我正在测试的所有配置(build.sh):

#!/bin/sh
gcc -O3 -Wall -c           -m32 -o fldpi-32.o fldpi.c
gcc -O3 -Wall -c           -m64 -o fldpi-64.o fldpi.c

gcc -O3 -Wall -ffast-math  -m32 -o pitimes1-32 pitimes.c fldpi-32.o
gcc -O3 -Wall              -m32 -o pitimes2-32 pitimes.c fldpi-32.o -lm
gcc -O3 -Wall -fno-builtin -m32 -o pitimes3-32 pitimes.c fldpi-32.o -lm
gcc -O3 -Wall -ffast-math  -m64 -o pitimes1-64 pitimes.c fldpi-64.o -lm
gcc -O3 -Wall              -m64 -o pitimes2-64 pitimes.c fldpi-64.o -lm
gcc -O3 -Wall -fno-builtin -m64 -o pitimes3-64 pitimes.c fldpi-64.o -lm

除了在各种编译器标志之间进行测试(我也比较了32位和64位，因为优化是不同的)，我还尝试切换测试的顺序。但是，atan2(0， -1)版本在每次测试中仍然名列前茅。

其他回答

下面是我在高中时学过的计算圆周率的技巧。

我之所以分享它，是因为我认为它足够简单，任何人都可以无限期地记住它，而且它教会了你“蒙特卡罗”方法的概念——这是一种统计方法，可以得到答案，这些答案不会立即通过随机过程演绎出来。

画一个正方形，在这个正方形内画一个象限(半圆的四分之一)(一个半径等于正方形边的象限，这样它就能尽可能多地填充正方形)

现在向正方形投掷飞镖，并记录飞镖落在何处——也就是说，在正方形内任意选择一个点。当然，它落在了正方形内部，但它落在半圆内部吗?记录这个事实。

重复此过程多次，你会发现半圆内的点数量与抛出的总数量之比为x。

由于正方形的面积是r乘以r，可以推导出半圆的面积是x乘以r乘以r(即x乘以r的平方)。因此x乘以4会得到。

这不是一个快速使用的方法。但这是蒙特卡罗方法的一个很好的例子。如果你环顾四周，你可能会发现许多超出你计算能力的问题都可以用这种方法来解决。

我认为圆周率的值是圆的周长和半径之比。

它可以通过常规的数学计算简单地实现

2021-10-18 04:21:37

更好的方法

要获得标准常数(如pi)或标准概念的输出，我们应该首先使用所使用语言中可用的内置方法。它将以最快和最好的方式返回一个值。我正在使用python以最快的方式运行，以获得圆周率的值。

数学库的PI变量。数学库将变量pi存储为常数。

math_pi.py

import math
print math.pi

使用linux /usr/bin/time -v python math_pi.py的time工具运行脚本

输出:

Command being timed: "python math_pi.py"
User time (seconds): 0.01
System time (seconds): 0.01
Percent of CPU this job got: 91%
Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 0:00.03

用arccos的数学方法

acos_pi.py

import math
print math.acos(-1)

使用linux /usr/bin/time -v python acos_pi.py的time工具运行脚本

输出:

Command being timed: "python acos_pi.py"
User time (seconds): 0.02
System time (seconds): 0.01
Percent of CPU this job got: 94%
Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 0:00.03

使用BBP公式

bbp_pi.py

from decimal import Decimal, getcontext
getcontext().prec=100
print sum(1/Decimal(16)**k * 
          (Decimal(4)/(8*k+1) - 
           Decimal(2)/(8*k+4) - 
           Decimal(1)/(8*k+5) -
           Decimal(1)/(8*k+6)) for k in range(100))

使用linux /usr/bin/time -v python bbp_pi.py的time工具运行脚本

输出:

Command being timed: "python c.py"
User time (seconds): 0.05
System time (seconds): 0.01
Percent of CPU this job got: 98%
Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 0:00.06

因此，最好的方法是使用语言提供的内置方法，因为它们是获得输出的最快和最好的方法。在python中使用math.pi

在过去，由于字的大小很小，浮点运算很慢或者根本不存在，我们常常这样做:

/* Return approximation of n * PI; n is integer */
#define pi_times(n) (((n) * 22) / 7)

对于不需要很高精度的应用程序(例如电子游戏)，这是非常快速和准确的。
