Program to calculate volume of Octahedron

Given the side of the Octahedron then calculate the volume of Octahedron.

Examples:

Input : 3
Output : 12.7279

Input : 7
Output : 161.692



A regular Octahedron has eight faces,twelve edges and six vertices. It has eight triangles with edges of equal length and effectively two square pyramids meeting at their bases.

Properties of Octahedron:
Number of faces: 8
Number of edges: 12
Number of vertices: 6

Volume = √2/3 × a3 where a is the side of Octahedron
