If you're asking whether Python is capable of performing the calculations,
then sure, no problem. If you're wondering how to use those numbers in your
programs, then your can just:
Python 1.5.2 (#1, May 9 2000, 15:05:56) [GCC 2.95.3 19991030 (prerelease)]
on linux-i386

>>> import math
>>> print math.pi
