It is claimed that pi, to 39 digits provides a level of accuracy sufficient to "draw" a circle the size of a hydrogen atom at the far end of the known universe. However, few cosmological constants are known t anything approaching that level of accuracy.

What are the first billion digits of pi?

The first 10 digits are 3.1415926535 and these are sufficient for all but the most rigorous calculations. There is a text file available at the related link that has the first billion (takes at least 35 seconds to load).The field size of this page cannot accommodate even the first 200,000 digits.

What is the difference between significant figures and significant digits in numerical calculations?

Significant figures and significant digits are terms used in numerical calculations to indicate the precision of a number. Significant figures refer to all the digits in a number that are known with certainty, including both non-zero digits and zeros that are between non-zero digits or at the end of a decimal. Significant digits, on the other hand, refer to all the non-zero digits in a number, excluding any leading or trailing zeros. In essence, significant figures provide a more accurate representation of the precision of a number compared to significant digits.

Where did Yasumasa Kanada do his calculations?

Japanese mathematician Yasumasa Kanada, who computed trillions of digits for pi, is an IT professor at the University of Tokyo.


How do you decide how many decimal places to include in your reporting of data?

You would just use significant digits. Significant digits are digits that carry meaning contributing to its precision. That would include all digits except leading zeroes, trailing zeros, and calculations carried to a greater precision than the original data or equipment supports.


What is the first 26 digits of pi?

The first 26 digits of pi (π) are 3.14159265358979323846264. Pi is an irrational number, meaning it has an infinite number of non-repeating decimal places. It is commonly used in mathematics, especially in calculations involving circles.


Why do scientists use the rules for determining significant figures?

If they did not use rules all their calculations would simply lead to random digits!


How do you use significant digits when reporting the results of calculations involving measurement?

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.


How do you use significant digits when repeating the results of calculations involving measurements?

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.


What is a rounding digit?

Rounding numbers means adjusting the digits (up or down) to make rough calculations easier. The result will be an estimated answer rather than a precise one
