The analysis

The claim that computers are capable of knowing or calculating the value of pi is a straightforward, universally established fact about basic computer programming and mathematics. None of the retrieved papers discuss pi computation (they cover topics such as Raspberry Pi hardware, agricultural applications, machine learning, and medical screening), but no citation is needed for common knowledge.
