Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

Argh brain is not braining sorry
Wait I multiplied by 180/pi
Or was it dividing by pi/180
Wait same thing!
GRR

With all practicality though around 10 digits was the best I got to

hmm, using a more accurate decimal should up the number accuracy.

0.0174532925199432957692369 maybe more accuracy?

neither lol. its multiplying by pi/180

Can you try it and screenshot it? Can’t open GKC rn
Edit: I WILL CRASH OUT THE 200 degree heat is getting to me urgh

I’m only getting 3.142

Using Machins’

heres a picture

With what formula?

Can anyone validate this for me?

Machin’s
Also if a certain formula is not really special(and I can’t really think of one that is), we don’t really need them, we have mostly enough working ones already

I’ll test it once I’m in a class with computers ._.
This is Machin’s? How many digits did you get?

Okay. I’ll be watching this and adding some input every now and then.

Technically I’m a blue phoenix, but this is just an alternate coloring that I forgor to save the lineart for

Thanks Clic, do you see anything that could be improved in Tinan’s formula? You’re a lot better at this device stuff than I am lol

@Suspnded_Arr0w_Shaft what formula did you use and can I get a better quality image?

Which post is it? Ya’ll[1] all have the same pfp and I can’t find Tinan.

This one, @ClicClac

Edit: JUST realized it isn’t Tinan oh my GORB I’m confuzzled

Isn’t this an implementation of an arctan series, not a pi series?

Yes

but it makes :pie: and that is all i need it to do

@ars3nic I dunno how many digits i got because I couldnt test it.

Toothless can you send me your code and i’ll troubleshoot it when I get the chance?

Here it is.

Idk why there were flagged posts, whatever
Also the one that @Suspnded_Arr0w_Shaft used can be simplified, there is a built in function to see if a number is even or odd, so you can use that ‘stead of a new property, also for both sides the two 1s can be simplified
Wait
The way I see it there are divisions
If it’s the division symbol you gave something that approaches four

Alright, here’s some notes:

When plugging the formula into desmos, it can be seen to give a perfectly accurate approximation of pi:

The reason it’s not perfectly accurate is probably because of decimal imprecision in Gimkit, or something like that.

Remember that this will be computing by approximating the arctans with a custom number system to a high degree, then adding/multiplying/subtracting them.
