Re: A89: Re: help me too please!
Ok, people, there are formulas to calculate the exact value of pi. They just
require an infinite summation, so the longer/more you run the summation the
closer to the exact value of pi you will get. I believe the current record
for pi is six billion digits (maybe more) by some people in Japan, though
you'll only need 37 to calculate the circumference of the universe to the
width of a proton (assuming the universe is 10^u and a proton is 10^p then
you'll need u-p digits).
