Well, Python3 added it, so when do you (empirically?, subjectively?) establish it's become ``time-proven``? How many other language adoptions does it take (oh btw, add ``Zig`` to the list too)?. :-( ---------------------------------------- Feature #17496: Add constant Math::TAU https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17496#change-89672 * Author: jzakiya (Jabari Zakiya) * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- Excuse me if this has been brought up before. This is a simple proposal to add the math constant ``Math::TAU`` = 2*``Math::PI``. See: https://tauday.com/ ``TAU`` has been included in a growing number of languages (Rust, Python3, Julia, et al), and this would add Ruby to that list, and make it even cooler. :-) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
