From: jzakiya@... Date: 2021-01-01T20:58:02+00:00 Subject: [ruby-core:101862] [Ruby master Feature#17496] Add constant Math::TAU Issue #17496 has been updated by jzakiya (Jabari Zakiya). FYI. Yesterday (the last day of 2020) before I created this issue to include ``TAU`` in ``Ruby``, literally seconds before, I opened the exact same request in ``Crystal``, as ``Ruby|Crystal`` are my two favorite languages. After one day, ``Crystal`` is going to add it. https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/issues/10165 This is what I mean by it's *just a matter of acceptance*. In the case of ``Crystal`` a main dev read the Manifesto (which he never heard of before) and immediately accepted|embraced the concept, and even wants to promote it via the language. Here, it's been met with caution and resistance. Same issue, same information, different people reacting to it differently. ---------------------------------------- Feature #17496: Add constant Math::TAU https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17496#change-89699 * 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:
