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:

    “Every boy was supposed to come into the world equipped with a father whose prime function was to be our father and show us how to be men. He can escape us, but we can never escape him. Present or absent, dead or alive, real or imagined, our father is the main man in our masculinity.”
    —Frank Pittman (20th century)
