I love it!!!! I celebrated by eating Shoo-fly pi! Although I'm sure it had a little 'reactance' with my pancreas!

My son Ben, the high school math teacher, and the rest of the math teachers at Stonington HS always have fun celebrating Pi Day. The cafeteria usually serves Shepherd’s Pie, a long time student favorite anytime it’s on the menu.

It's just a conspiracy by the math companies to sell more math...

Using y-cruncher, calculated pi to 1, 5, and 25 Million, and also 5 Billion digits, and have the files on the PC. The 5-B size took about 10 minutes but that was an older machine. standard is a text file, but just try opening it in Notepad. (Notepad++ will do it very very slowly) Getting that thing into a PDF for reasonably convenient viewing was a chore.

  Now, the next time you wind a coil, you'll be right on. All you need to do now is to come up with a way to count your turns to five billion digits. Calculate twice, wind once.

Hanging with some friends that were calculating PI.  I was at what they called the "SIXES" party...  there is a spot in Pi that is a long string of sixes and we all celebrated that happening.   I don't remember much else about the calc or how far they took it...   Good Party....
