I had a program once that did pi to any number of decimal points as long as your memory could hold it.
I believe it was on the Amiga, I know there is a formula that you just iterate over and over again to get as much accuracy as you want.
Keep looking.
I remember pi off by heart to a few decimal points.
3.141592653589793236 I think that is right.
I used to know it to 40 decimal points but forgot.
I did run that program I had and printed pi out to 1000 decimal points. So I know it works, just don't remember the formula.
I do seem to remember it used 2 sets of values and flipped back and forth between them.
