For thousands of years, mathematicians and scientists have worked on calculating the digits of pi -- a project that could literally go on forever. For now, we at least know the first 100 trillion ...

Pi Day, which occurs every 14 March – or 3/14, in the US date format – celebrates the world’s favourite mathematical constant. This year, why not try an experiment to calculate its value? All you will ...

PI@home might be kinda cool. I would try to program it but it either already exists, or i probably wouldn't know how to write it anyway Granted it's not critical world issue that itd be working ...

The nerdiest day of the year is officially here again: March 14, or Pi day. Yes, the day when all jokes end in 3.1415. To celebrate Pi day—the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter—in a ...

Pi, a mathematical constant denoted by the Greek letter π, is the ratio of a circle's circumference C to its diameter d: π = C/d. The circumference of a circle is, in turn, equal to 2πr, where r is ...

Swiss researchers said on Monday they had calculated the mathematical constant pi to a new world-record level of exactitude. The constant π is represented in this mosaic outside the Mathematics ...

Calculating 100 trillion digits of pi is a feat worth celebrating with a pie. (Google Graphic / The Keyword) Three years after Seattle software developer Emma Haruka Iwao and her teammates at Google ...
