Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

[Toothless]

Would that mean Machin’s wouldn’t work in this scenario? Or that we just fine tune the values?

[Dungeonmaster]

We need a decimal storage system either way

[Boss_1s]

No no no, bro this is how to GENERATE the digits of pi

God help me why do people not read the context

[TheMathematicalComet]

@ars3nic

generate the digits of pi in GKC using block code?

It needs to be generated with block code, not searched up and pasted.

It’s not even necroposting if it’s a device topic-

[necroposterofdoom]

lies
the owner of this topic has claimed it as solved for quite a while now
it just doesn’t have a solution marked.

Also a necropost is a pointless revive. Not just replying on an old topic

[Boss_1s]

Wrong, it is if you’re not contributing

[Here_to_help]

That is literally called a bump bro. And yes bumps should be allowed on research topics so that people can actually see the topics, just like bumps so people can see guides. It really doesn’t matter if you’re contributing if you’re just bumping the topic.

Anyhow, since I do want to contribute, I’ve always found Monte Carlo estimation interesting, although they aren’t usually exact: Estimating the value of Pi using Monte Carlo - GeeksforGeeks

I’m pretty sure this topic is about generating Pi so everybody please read through everything before replying.
Welcome to the forums @Ivanity

@AstralLuke

please read through everything before replying.

No

Anyways, I thought about dividing 22/7 cuz that gives pi.
So we can get to 16 digits

[Boss_1s]

Bro, this is why you read through the whole thing. I already found a better fraction.

@Boss_1s

Already was mentioned cause I was messing with the calculator

I did some messin around with the calculator and got a good fraction: 631.46/201[1], which equals 3.1415920415920…, this is slightly less closer to pi than 355/113 but actually is less than pi ima come back after adding more decimals Yea i agree per chance…? Edit: 631.460122/201[2] is actually equal to 3.14159264677…, which per chance makes it a way better candidate to use than 355/113 or 31573/10050 right_arrow_curving_left︎ or 315730061/100500000 right_arrow_curving_left︎

@AMineRide

the fraction 22/7 is the closest fraction representation of pi

Nope - it’s 355/113

Also, relating to decimal impresicion and limits in GKC, if we really want to print the digits out without GKC realizing we are, we might need to find a formula for error margins

Everyone if you really want to keep this topic up, you’re gonna have to read EVERYTHING previously.

First of all, neither of you are even close to the highest we’ve gotten. I will find some posts for you all.

3 Digits:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

@ars3nic using this block code: [Screenshot 2025-05-21 1.59.04 PM] I generated this number [image] I believe @Dungeonmaster’s method will be more exact.

I think like 5 digits:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

@Boss_1s is correct. Using this variation of the previous block code: [image] we can get this output, which is way more exact than the previous [Screenshot 2025-05-21 2.20.43 PM]

11 Digits:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

I previously had an idea: Since decimal digits are so little and the max digit is so high, why dont we multiply the number so more digits can show? The thought was good but… Here’s a diagram, the line is the digit where no more digits can be shown, x is what was thought to happen, and check was what actually happened [IMG_0886] And when i tried on sin: [IMG_0885] Yeah we could only use text if we want it to be precise

12 Digits:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

Okay so using this block code [Screenshot 2025-05-21 6.25.24 PM] We can calculate 12 decimals accurately, as shown below [image]

30 Digits:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

@Dungeonmaster HEE HEE HEE HAW Using this method [Screenshot 2025-05-21 6.56.50 PM] We can correctly display 14 accurate numbers of [image] BUT… If we were to actually write this method out, without limits to decimal amount, this method can actually display 30 accurate values of [image] Can anyone validate this for me?

52 Digits:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

Okay ANOTHER ONE Using this block code: [Screenrecording2025-05-217.40.57PM-ezgif.com-optimize] (I apologize for the horrible gif quality) We can display 16 digits (I think… I cant really count) of accurate in gkc [image] But I’m pretty sure this can accurately calculate 52 digits of If anyone wants to check this for me, here’s the equation [image]

162 Digits?:

Is it possible to generate the digits of pi?

I believe that using this equation: [image] We should get 162 decimal places accurate. Using a series to get a approximation, would probably take longer to get 162 than server uptime.

Now I lowkey don’t know what happened with this topic after post 176, but there’s what we had (as far as I know).

[Boss_1s]

After 176 was when people started not reading the title
but before that [176] using those formulas someone got just the text pi which meant gkc knew what we were doing
so we’re trying to figure that out right now

[Toothless]

at least google pi cause 3.142 is not it

[Toothless]

Some people don’t bother memorizing numbers

definitely not calling myself out

[Boss_1s]

Ok we’re getting off topic here, let’s lock in on this

and now we’re closed…
