  2. Gauss–Legendre algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Legendre_algorithm

    The arithmetic–geometric mean of two numbers, a 0 and b 0, is found by calculating the limit of the sequences + = +, + =, which both converge to the same limit. If = and = ⁡ then the limit is (⁡) where () is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind

    Pi, (equal to 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288) is a mathematical sequence of numbers. The table below is a brief chronology of computed numerical values of, or ...

  4. Six nines in pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_nines_in_pi

    A sequence of six consecutive nines occurs in the decimal representation of the number pi (π), starting at the 762nd decimal place. [1] [2] It has become famous because of the mathematical coincidence, and because of the idea that one could memorize the digits of π up to that point, and then suggest that π is rational.

    Since 7 October 2024, Python 3.13 is the latest stable release, and it and, for few more months, 3.12 are the only releases with active support including for bug fixes (as opposed to just for security) and Python 3.9, [55] is the oldest supported version of Python (albeit in the 'security support' phase), due to Python 3.8 reaching end-of-life.

  6. Proof that 22/7 exceeds π - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_22/7_exceeds_π

    Systematic methods of computing the value of π exist. If one knows that π is approximately 3.14159, then it trivially follows that π < ⁠ 22 / 7 ⁠ , which is approximately 3.142857. But it takes much less work to show that π < ⁠ 22 / 7 ⁠ by the method used in this proof than to show that π is approximately 3.14159.

  7. Approximations of π - Wikipedia

    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.

  8. Proof that π is irrational - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_π_is_irrational

    Since each function () (with ) takes integer values at and and since the same thing happens with the sine and the cosine functions, this proves that () is an integer. Since it is also greater than 0 , {\displaystyle 0,} it must be a natural number.
