# --description--
|
||
|
|
||
|
A rectilinear grid is an orthogonal grid where the spacing between the gridlines does not have to be equidistant.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An example of such grid is logarithmic graph paper.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Consider rectilinear grids in the Cartesian coordinate system with the following properties:The gridlines are parallel to the axes of the Cartesian coordinate system.There are N+2 vertical and N+2 horizontal gridlines. Hence there are (N+1) x (N+1) rectangular cells.The equations of the two outer vertical gridlines are x = -1 and x = 1.The equations of the two outer horizontal gridlines are y = -1 and y = 1.The grid cells are colored red if they overlap with the unit circle, black otherwise.For this problem we would like you to find the positions of the remaining N inner horizontal and N inner vertical gridlines so that the area occupied by the red cells is minimized.
|
||
|
|
||
|
E.g. here is a picture of the solution for N = 10:
|
||
|
|
||
|
The area occupied by the red cells for N = 10 rounded to 10 digits behind the decimal point is 3.3469640797.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Find the positions for N = 400. Give as your answer the area occupied by the red cells rounded to 10 digits behind the decimal point.

`euler392()` should return 3.1486734435.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
assert.strictEqual(euler392(), 3.1486734435);
|
||
|
```
