The packing constant (or packing density) is a measure of how efficiently a shape can fill space when repeated. Different shapes have various packing constants based on how they can be arranged. Here is a list of some shapes with known packing constants: 1. **Circle**: - Packing Constant: \\(\\frac\{\\pi\}\{\\sqrt\{12\}\} \\approx 0.9069\\) for hexagonal packing 2.
