Hi, hello!

Maybe Don Karasu can become Don Zombie as well :3

Hva sier dere hvis jeg begynner å snakke norsk igjen?
 
42. huh. dogboy hasnt shown up for a while... maybe... no! must remain optimistic!

π can be empirically estimated by drawing a large circle, then measuring its diameter and circumference and dividing the circumference by the diameter. Another geometry-based approach, due to Archimedes,[22] is to calculate the perimeter, Pn , of a regular polygon with n sides circumscribed around a circle with diameter d. Then

That is, the more sides the polygon has, the closer the approximation approaches π. Archimedes determined the accuracy of this approach by comparing the perimeter of the circumscribed polygon with the perimeter of a regular polygon with the same number of sides inscribed inside the circle. Using a polygon with 96 sides, he computed the fractional range: 3+10⁄71 < π < 3+1⁄7.[23]
π can also be calculated using purely mathematical methods. Most formulae used for calculating the value of π have desirable mathematical properties, but are difficult to understand without a background in trigonometry and calculus. However, some are quite simple, such as this form of the Gregory-Leibniz series:[24]

While that series is easy to write and calculate, it is not immediately obvious why it yields π. In addition, this series converges so slowly that nearly 300 terms are needed to calculate π correctly to 2 decimal places.[25] However, by computing this series in a somewhat more clever way by taking the midpoints of partial sums, it can be made to converge much faster. Let

, correct to 9 decimal places. This computation is an example of the van Wijngaarden transformation.[26]


dont ask
 
49. ...I hate being out of the conversation. *sigh* My computer sucks so much. Why couldn't it work? And why couldn't Silver be on when I finally get back?

*appears out of nowhere*

A party? hope i'm inviented(spelling?)
