Are you trying to be rational about Pi.You know, I often see people abbreviate pi as 3.1415, but shouldn't it be 3.1416?
ba-da-bing dooshAre you trying to be rational about Pi.
Ohhhh no, you're not getting transcendental on us here......
My problem with imaginary numbers, how can one fail a test if the subject matter is imaginary?
e + π? Well, um, yes. Yes it is. i is not. (Or is it "i am not"?)Not necessarily! Is e + π transcendental? How about i?
Eithere + π? Well, um, yes. Yes it is. i is not. (Or is it "i am not"?)
Pi day is a fake holiday invented by math companies to sell more math.
Pi has been calculated out to 31.4 trillion decimals, Google announces on Pi Day
https://techxplore.com/news/2019-03-pi-trillion-decimals-google-day.html
On Thursday, Google revealed developer advocate Emma Haruka Iwao, with the help of the tech giant's cloud platform, calculated Pi to 31.4 trillion decimal places, beating the previous record by nearly 9 trillion digits.
To do this, Iwao's team used a program called ycruncher capable of computing Pi to trillions of digits powered by 25 virtual machines run through Google Cloud's Compute Engine.
"The biggest challenge with pi is that it requires a lot of storage and memory to calculate," said Iwao, who has worked with the company for nearly four years, in a blog posted published Thursday by Google.
The calculation required 170 terabytes of data, about the same amount of data as the entire Library of Congress print collection, said Google.
After about 4 months of calculating, Iwao arrived at the record-breaking result.
