isnt that PI?

 

[Mikebits]

Hehe. I have often wondered. How many decimal places does NASA use for Pi?

I found it when I Google- Millionth


Love it. Great Stuff kv

Quote from WIki.

the value of pi has been computed to more than a trillion digits

Why oh why, would anyone need this much accuracy other than just because. lol

What frightens me is how much computing power you need just to *use* that much accuracy.

haha yea seriously, what's the point

Hehe. I have often wondered. How many decimal places does NASA use for Pi?

For example, a value truncated to 11 decimal places is accurate enough to calculate the circumference of the earth with a precision of a millimeter, and one truncated to 39 decimal places is sufficient to compute the circumference of any circle that fits in the observable universe to a precision comparable to the size of a hydrogen atom.

39 according to Wikipedia.

I thought one purpose of the calculation to so many digits was empirical validation that it was an irrational number.

A more important reason is probably the same motive that makes people climb mountains. John

Interesting, thanks

This just blows me away.
Also from Wiki: Relating to Pi

The Guinness-recognized record for remembered digits of π is 67,890 digits, held by Lu Chao, a 24-year-old graduate student from China. It took him 24 hours and 4 minutes to recite to the 67,890th decimal place of π without an error

My goodness, I have a hard enough time just remembering my phone number...
