When making arrays do they suppose to be the same float number that this video presents to us? If not, how do we know if our float number is accurate for example:
numbers_geeks_love[0] = 3.1415;
instead of using 3.1415 can I change it to a different float number? Like 2.6543 as a random number?

In the challenge, just assign the number it asks you to assign. 2.71828 is the first one, I think. If you're just following along with the video, then it doesn't matter what you use, but your output my look different if you use something else.
