It is claimed that pi, to 39 digits provides a level of accuracy sufficient to "draw" a circle the size of a hydrogen atom at the far end of the known universe. However, few cosmological constants are known t anything approaching that level of accuracy.

What are the first billion digits of pi?
The first 10 digits are 3.1415926535 and these are sufficient for all but the most rigorous calculations. There is a text file available at the related link that has the first billion (takes at least 35 seconds to load).The field size of this page cannot accommodate even the first 200,000 digits.
What are the first 100000 digits of Pi?
The first 10 digits are 3.1415926535 and these are sufficient for all but the most rigorous calculations. There is a text file available at the related link that has the first billion (takes at least 35 seconds to load).The field size of this page cannot accommodate even the first 200,000 digits.
How should most calculations be calculated?
Count the first 4 digits in the answer :)
How many hex digits are required to decimal numbers up to 1 million?
5 will be sufficient.
Where did Yasumasa Kanada do his calculations?
Japanese mathematician Yasumasa Kanada, who computed trillions of digits for pi, is an IT professor at the University of Tokyo.
How do you decide how many decimal places to include in your reporting of data?
You would just use significant digits. Significant digits are digits that carry meaning contributing to its precision. That would include all digits except leading zeroes, trailing zeros, and calculations carried to a greater precision than the original data or equipment supports.
Why do scientists use the rules for determining significant figures?
If they did not use rules all their calculations would simply lead to random digits!
How do you use significant digits when reporting the results of calculations involving measurement?
The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.
How do you use significant digits when repeating the results of calculations involving measurements?
The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.
What is a rounding digit?
Rounding numbers means adjusting the digits (up or down) to make rough calculations easier. The result will be an estimated answer rather than a precise one
When dealing with very small or very larger number what step would you take to improve the accuracy of calculations?
Make sure you have enough significant digits, depending on the desired accuracy.
How do you determine the number of significant in a measured quantity?
The significant figures (also called significant digits) of a number are those digits that carry meaning contributing to it's precision. This includes all digits except:Leading zeros where they serve merely as placeholders indicate the scale of the number.spurious digits introduced, for example, by calculations carried out to greater accuracy than that of the original data, or measurements reported to a greater precision than the equipment supports.
