6Foot2 Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 (edited) The video below runs for 3 hours 14 minutes and 16 seconds. Every Digit of Pi* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6kag68UyRs * "almost" every digit of pi ** and by "almost" we mean only a small finite number of digits of pi Edited March 15, 2014 by 6Foot2 Add another Pi related YouTube video to the post.
6Foot2 Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 And happy birthday Ben. Re: Pi Day 2016: Link 1: Pi Day 2016: Deals, Celebrations, History ...Last year’s date — 3.14.2015 — was especially significant because it matched the first four digits after the decimal point. This year, some math lovers have already started calling 3.14.16 “Rounded Pi Day,” rounding up those four digits... Link 2: TeachPi.org - 3.14.16 is upon us… um, Rounded Pi Day?

I can understand that; round pie is more geometrically pleasurable. Although does anyone else get that argh moment when they see MM/DD/YYYY formed dates? I prefer the DD/MM/YYYY form or even better the ISO 8601 format YYYY-MM-DD... makes file organisation so much easier! But hey pie, like ice cream, is good.

I prefer the DD/MM/YYYY form or even better the ISO 8601 format YYYY-MM-DD... makes file organisation so much easier! But hey pie, like ice cream, is good. I prefer the DD/MM/YYYY. It seems to make more sense to me as: Days < Months < Years ["<" here meaning less than, or shorter than] So the date reads as items of increasing length. 1
korifugi Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Ah, yes - Pi day. I've seen this going round on email here. 1
DJ-1701 Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Ah, yes - Pi day. I've seen this going round on email here. You mean a circular? 2
korifugi Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 You mean a circular? Similar, but the email format increases the radius it reaches. 1

6Foot2 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Late Pi Day link: Link: Raspberry Pi 3 Calculations First time anyone has streamed pi over the internet as it's calculated on Pi Day!!!! Streaming begins at 12:00AM GMT on the 14th March 2016. Using a Raspberry Pi 3 Update: After 26.5hrs of calculating I was cleaning up my pi workspace I bumped the power supply and had to restart the program.
