Mile of Pi - Numberphile
A million digits of Pi on one piece of paper (1.05 miles). More links & stuff in full description below ↓↓↓ More about how and why: http://youtu.be/99Welatppzk More Pi videos from Numberphil...
==========
We're here on a runway because for some reason Brady has printed out the first 1,000,000digits of Pi on a continuous mile long piece of paper which we are going to very carefullyunravel today and go for a tour of a million digits of Pi.So here's 3.14159 which - for a fun fact - that's as far as I've memorised and then it carrieson and you've marked every 10 digits so there's 100,000 marker points so we won't get lost,we'll always know where we are in Pi. Where's the Feynman Point? Is that seven hundred andsomething?This the Feynman Point, six 9s, 999999, so that won't be beaten... there is a stringof seven 3s, but that takes another 710,000 digits, so we'll be nearly three qua...
