Another less efficient way to estimate pi is the Gregory-Leibnizseries: pi = 4/1 -4/3 + 4/5 -4/7 + 4/9... . Use a while loop toapproximate pi using this technique (5 points). Continue thecalculations until the absolute value of the difference between thevalue of pi stored in MATLAB and the approximation is less than0.001. Report the final approximation and the number of iterationsrequired (5 points). Hint: to alternate the sign on each term use(-1) raised to a power.
