A circle is one of the simple shapes of Euclidean geometry. It is the locus of all points in a plane at a constant distance, called the radius, from a fixed point, called the center. Through any three points not on the same line, there passes one and only one circle.
A diameter is a chord passing through the center. The length of a diameter is twice the radius. A diameter is the largest chord in a circle.
Circles are simple closed curves which divide the plane into an interior and an exterior. The circumference of a circle is the perimeter of the circle, and the interior of the circle is called a disk.

nice and thank u
so much
ilearnt many and make
a power point for
cicumference
Nice explanation and impressive….
s there only one data structure in linux…? we cant get the floating point values, like $ for int s ther any for decimal points…?
thank for script
