John Wallis was a mathematician who found/discovered/invented the Wallis function (or Wallis product as its friends call it).

The Wallis function is the most used method to calculate pi.

As you have probably figured from the name of this repo I'm not the biggest fan of his function.

This repo is meant to show how horrible the Wallis function is and to ask every developer in the world to demolish it.

I implemented a better function to calculate pi, the code in the repo is running the function, and comparing it to the Wallis function.

git clone https://github.com/donno2048/Anti-wallis
cd Anti-Wallis

sudo apt update
sudo apt install gcc -y

gcc c/main.c c/test.c c/pi.c -o main -lm

./main

sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3 -y

python3 py/main.py

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nodejs -y

node --experimental-modules js/main.mjs

sudo apt update
sudo apt install golang-go -y

go run go/main.go go/pi.go go/test.go 

sudo apt update
sudo apt install rustc -y

rustc rust/main.rs

./main

If you're wondering why so few digits of pi take so much time to evaluate note these two facts:

1. To benchmark the functions I'm running them 100 times
2. Not all the evaluated digits are being printed, simply because of the language itself or the properties of string formating in it
