Going after the Chudnovsky brothers hey ~ http://www.newyorker.com/archive/1992/03/02/1992_03_02_036_TNY_CARDS_000362534 http://www.newyorker.com/archive/1992/03/02/1992_03_02_036_T... In the New Yorker article, "The Mountains of Pi", David Chudnovsky reckoned he needed a trillion to see if there was some sort of rule Pi. Did you see any patterns at this point? Is the average digit in Pi 4.5, slightly under?
