If 10,000 digits aren't enough Pi for you, see http://technoserv.no-ip.org:2080/index.php?page=pi

The coolest thing about Pi day is the fact that we (1676) are the Pioneers! :D

Happy π Day! From the Pascack πoneers!!!

Hope you all had some yummy circular desserts!

Other important things today:

300th anniversary of π!
Albert Einstein's Birthday!
Waclaw Sierpinski's Birthday!

I think there should've been a huge FIRST party!

Now this is a nerdy thread. I love it! Just love it!

Happy pi day everyone.

-Joe

PS: *sigh* and soon they'll probably have a national root day, a national exponent day, a national sine (do they have a national s[hr]ine?), cosine, and tangent day, a national logorithm day, a national natural logorithm day, a y = mx + b day, a circle day, a hyperbola day, and a parabolic hyperbolic everything extremely curvy day.

PS2: Geez, and if they really wanted to, they could make February 29th national quadrant day, national square day, national quad day, something dealing with fours.

man this is crazy, while i was transfering data from my 4 gig flash drive to my 1 gig flash drive, i noticed that when i was done the amount of freespace that i had left on my 4 gig flash drive was 3.14 not only my teams number, but it happened on Pi Day. :rolleyes: could this be a sign maybe to play the lotto or a good sign meaning good things for Big MO at Midwest Regional or at West Michigan. :D What do you think?

Well it's 33554432 digits+1 space per 10 digits (~3355443 spaces)=36909875

1 byte per character
36909875/1024 bytes per KB/1024 KB per MB = 35.19 MB, which compresses to ~18 MB. (Apparantly text files compress well.)

If you have mathematica and a decent machine you'd be better off using that. Mathematica uses a very fast algorithm due to Chudnovsky. There are also programs available online that can calculate pi to a large number of digits very rapidly.
