Pi Function

In mathematics, two different functions are known as the pi or Pi function:

  • (pi function) – the prime-counting function
  • (Pi function) – the Gamma function when offset to coincide with the factorial

Famous quotes containing the word function:

    “Think of the tools in a tool-box: there is a hammer, pliers, a saw, a screwdriver, a rule, a glue-pot, nails and screws.—The function of words are as diverse as the functions of these objects.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
