I wonder what the longest known streak of identical digits is in pi. Also, does the sequence 0123456789 happen any in location of the known digits of pi?

- hx2a 7y agoUsing this website: https://www.angio.net/pi/digits.html https://www.angio.net/pi/digits.html I can search for the sequence 0123456789. It is not found in the first 200M digits.
- dmurray 7y agoThere's a sequence of thirteen eights, and twelve of each of the other digits, documented at [0] which covers the first 2.7 trillion digits. Based on that you can be all but certain any given ten-digit sequence, including 0123456789, has also been found.

- klyrs 7y agoI dunno about "known" but you can get a billion digits pretty easy. $ wget https://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb/contrib/pi/pi-billion.txt $ grep -ob 012345678 pi-billion.txt 956753746:012345678 $ grep -ob 0123456789 pi-billion.txt $ So close, and amusingly close to the end of the file!
