No, the radius gets squared. You take the area of the surface (pi*radius*radius) and multiply it by how high it is for the volume of a cylinder.

Next time order it with extra math.

Haha, Germans suck at math.

No kidding, I fucking hate math. Doesn't have any wars. History was so much better.

Area = pi*r^2 = pi*r*r

Volume of a cylinder = area of circle*height

Radius = z
Height = a

Volume = pi*z*z*a

I've sunk to a new low.

I wish I would've thought of this when I taught math. Trying to get low-performing kids to give a fuck about volume and surface area gave me a month long aneurysm.
