Pi is the ratio of C/2r where C is the circumference and r is the radius. No matter what circle you look at, this ratio will always remain the same number, which is pi. Now if one was to look at the circle of radius 1, you would only need to calculate the length of the circumference and divide it by two. Since you can always measure in smaller and smaller increments, you can always come up with more and more numbers to add to the length of the circumference and thus come up with more and more digits of pi.

To find the actual values of the digits of pi, search for "digits of pi" on any internet search site.

Actually, there are a number of infinite series that add to pi or to a function of pi. These are used to calculate pi to very high degrees of accuracy.

How many digits in 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.
