Pi Enthusiasts: Your Homework For This Week

Pi enthusiast calculates it to ten trillion digits: "Finding the value of pi to 10 trillion digits requires performing a lot of calculations (using software written by Yee), so many in fact, that Kondo had to add a lot more hard drive space than you’d find on your average PC. Forty eight terabytes to be exact."





Now...not being a Pi master, rather more of a pie consumer, I'll just let you go to the above link so you can attempt to put a new digit or two on Mr Kondo's rather impressive number. If successful, submit to the 'celebrated Mr K' for verification by next Saturday.
