Some common questions about pi include: What is the value of pi? How is pi calculated? Why is pi important in mathematics and science? How many digits of pi have been calculated?
the current record for decimal places that pi has been calculated to is 1,241,100,000,000 THIS IS MORE THAN A TRILLION * * * * * As of 17 October 2011, the answer is 10 trillion.
1.2411 trillion digits (1,241,100,000,000) digits of pi have been dicovered.
As of April 1999, 68.7 billion places had been calculated. As of September 1999, 206 billion places had been calculated.
As of 17 October 2011, the answer is 10 trillion. See link.
Alexander J. Yee and Shigeru Kondo have calculated 10 trillion digits of Pi.
Because Pi is known to be an irrational number it means that the digits never end or repeat in any known way. But calculating the digits of Pi has proven to be an fascination for mathematicians throughout history. Some spent their lives calculating the digits of Pi, but until computers, less than 1,000 digits had been calculated. In 1949, a computer calculated 2,000 digits and the race was on. Millions of digits have been calculated, with the record held (as of September 1999) by a supercomputer at the University of Tokyo that calculated 206,158,430,000 digits. (first 1,000 digits). However, learning 3.141, is all that is necessary. But you can go on and on, to infinity, and never find the exact circumference of a circle. I have only memorized 205 digits of pi; and yes I do use it to find the circumference of a circle.
Oh honey, I don't have time to recite pi to 100 quadrillion digits for you. Just know that pi is an irrational number that goes on forever without repeating. So, if you need that many digits of pi, I suggest you grab a calculator and have fun with it!
Currently (Sept 2014), the number of digits is 10 trillion (and fifty).
1.2411 trillion digits (1,241,100,000,000) digits of pi have been dicovered. * * * * * 1.2 trillion? That is ancient history! Pi is a transcendental number and so its decimal representation has infinitely many digits. Ten trillion digits in its decimal form were calculated in October 2011. See link for details.
Pi was calculated to 10 trillion digits on October 17, 2011.
Almost 2.7 trillion digits. * * * * * As of 17 October 2011, the answer is 10 trillion = 1013.
