Pi to 1 MILLION Digits - 300 Year Old Formula

This video shows how to calculate over 1 million digits of Pi using Machin's formula.
I used the Go programming language. But you could definitely do this in other languages. I believe the current fasted implementation of Pi is in C++.
I found this page to be helpful when determining if I was getting the right answers for Pi

The derivation of Machin's formula can be found on wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-...
Better Explained has a pretty good explanation of how Archimedes used shape approximation to calculate Pi

Wikipedia has the chronology of the computation of Pi

Amazing vid. Never knew there was so much in just pi calculation

[@freevipservers]

Wow this was a really good video and sadly only got 400 views, liked and subbed.

Thanks! Thanks for watching!

Underated Aryabhatta and Ramanujan
1million decimal places was got by ramanujan's identity
also aryabhatta who invented 0 gave the value of pie correct to upto 4 decimal places

Reading the phrase "invented 0 caught me off guard". Imagine being the cousin of the guy who invented the number zero 🤣

hello, do you have an idea why I get pi with (1 + 1/-4.136866650678035)^-4.136866650678035 = 3.141592653589793 3488520084713809 ??
Thanks for your help and your usefull video about how to calculate pi :)
