The common misconception that pi = 3.1400000000000000000000000 drives me nuts. Today should be called Pi To Two Decimal Places Day.

I know, pi really goes on forever, not to 2, 4, or 8 decimal places!

Most scientific calculators only go to 10 or 12 decimal places...

My TI-83+ only shows 10 significant digits (i.e., 10 digits total on both sides of the decimal point), although I think it uses more digits (15?) internally to help guard against visible roundoff errors.

My TI89 doesn't even show digits. Instead, it will show pi as its symbol unless I force a decimal count and even then I think it must be to at least 50 digits internally.

I'm not sure if people think that Pi goes on forever as zeroes... It's just a lot easier to round it off to the nearest hundredth. ____________________ kimi gakure ta yuuki wa OKKUSENMAN OKKUSENMAN sugi sarishi kisetsu wa DORAMATIKKU

Anyone remember this one site that had pi to the millionth digit? I remember seeing it a long time ago and I forgot the URL.

Here you go.

Not sure if it's the one you were thinking of, but that site I linked to earlier in the thread has a million digits of pi.
