  2. Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe...

    This does not compute the nth decimal digit of π (i.e., in base 10). [3] But another formula discovered by Plouffe in 2022 allows extracting the nth digit of π in decimal. [4] BBP and BBP-inspired algorithms have been used in projects such as PiHex [5] for calculating many digits of π using distributed computing. The existence of this ...

  4. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159. It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics , and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π , to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a ...

    Super PI by Kanada Laboratory [101] in the University of Tokyo is the program for Microsoft Windows for runs from 16,000 to 33,550,000 digits. It can compute one million digits in 40 minutes, two million digits in 90 minutes and four million digits in 220 minutes on a Pentium 90 MHz. Super PI version 1.9 is available from Super PI 1.9 page.
