This code is explained in the following YouTube Video:

In this video I cover how to code while loops in MATLAB and running totals (recursion) for the purpose of creating a solution with convergence. The develop a code to find the approximation of pi within a user-defined tolerance (input) based on the Leibniz formula for pi.
