What's wrong?'s a cool scene. Dig it!

  As I'm sure other people will tell you, a float cannot always be
tested acurately. There's no guarantee that 3.142 can even be
represented acurately as a float, so how could a float object with a
value close to 3.142 be compared exactly to 3.142?
  It might help if you use a double or long double instead of a float,
but even that has no guarantee of success.
  Solution: instead of comparing your pi variable to 3.142 exactly,
compare it to 3.142ñ0.0005 or something. So instead of this:
if(pi == 3.142)
you could do this:
if((pi > 3.1415) && (pi < 3.1425))
