  Legendre's constant
  
  Legendre's constant is a mathematical constant occurring in a formula constructed by Adrien-Marie Legendre to approximate the behavior of the prime-counting function π ( x ) {\displaystyle \pi (x)} . The value that corresponds precisely to its asymptotic behavior is now known to be 1. Examination of available numerical data for known values of π ( x ) {\displaystyle \pi...
