For thousands of years, mathematicians and scientists have worked on calculating the digits of pi -- a project that could literally go on forever. For now, we at least know the first 100 trillion ...

This is at least my ninth year of writing about Pi Day—here is my post from 2010. Of course it's called Pi Day because the date, 3/14, is similar to the first three digits of pi (3.1415 …). At this ...

Developers have set a new record in the endless quest to accurately calculate pi. A team led by Google Cloud’s Emma Haruka Iwao found 100 TRILLION digits of the mathematical constant — smashing the ...

It’s Pi Day, the nerdiest of holidays because it’s all about a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter (yes ...

Calculating 100 trillion digits of pi is a feat worth celebrating with a pie. (Google Graphic / The Keyword) Three years after Seattle software developer Emma Haruka Iwao and her teammates at Google ...

Pi just got bigger. Google’s Compute Engine has calculated the most digits of pi ever, setting a new world record. Emma Haruka Iwao, who works in high performance computing and programming language ...

It’s March 14 (3/14), also known as Pi Day, an annual celebration of the mathematical constant π, first approximated by Babylonians and Egyptians about 4,000 years ago and later more precisely by ...

Researchers in Switzerland are set to break the record for the most precise value of the mathematical constant pi, after using a supercomputer to calculate the famous number to its first 62.8 trillion ...

Most people know the value of Pi as 3.1416, but it's gotten longer and longer over the years as researchers try to find its most accurate calculation. A team from the University of Applied Sciences ...
