Just one more digit bro, imagine how many things youd discover bro, just one more, one more and it will be so much safer bro, It would help all mission just use 16digits bro
Math is just runes and you can’t convince me otherwise.
So it’s just a standard double precision floating point? Makes it seem like 15 decimal places was hand selected.
At my last job I was bored so I wrote sql server functions to perform standard math operations on varchar(max) and used them to build factorial tables which I then used to iteratively calculate pi. I think I got up to around 100 digits before I got yelled at for bogging down the server and had to stop.
There’s a 9 repeating 6 times in there which I’d think is a pretty rare occurrence in pi. I wonder what the longest occurrence of a repeating digit is.
Pi is infinite so every combination/string of numbers is in there, if we calculated enough you could find a billion 2s next to each other
You can look through the first trillion here

Not necessarily. It could just become a series of 1’s repeating forever. Nothing would require it to contain all strings of numbers.
On a long enough string I’m guessing… Infinite? Pi isn’t a pattern so does it follow the same “if monkeys hade an infinite amount of time to type at a typewriter they’d type Shakespeare”
Looked it up, and it’s apparently called the Feynman point after Physicist Richard Feynman (though the story behind that attribution is disputed). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_nines_in_pi?wprov=sfla1
That’s fascinating. Obviously, there’s a series of repeating numbers in there, and one of the numbers would have a highest number of repeats… until further places of pi are determined and another number knocks it off… I assume there’s a repeating 1, or 2 that repeats 7 or 8 times,etc… at some point…
