It's fast and simple. Pi calculation will be the bottleneck when we improve sin/cos or erf/erfc with bit burst algorithm. Requires multiplication cost to be less than O(n^2).

Need to merge #407 first.

Pi calculation will be the bottleneck when we improve sin/cos or erf/erfc with bit burst algorithm. (#433, #458)
Multiplication cost needs to be less than
O(N^2).Time and error.
PI(prec)calculatesprec+16digits internally and round toprecdigits.
