::I quite like Gerard Schildberger's idea of showing the number of correct digits per iteration, perhaps to 100 million. http://www.angio.net/pi/ section Repeating Patterns in Pi tells us 'Jonathan Day recently (02/1999) noticed that there appear to be no simple, repeating patterns longer than 10 digits. He found 9 6's at 45681781, 9 7's at 24658601 and 9 8's at 46663520.' It would be interseting to check this --[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 12:56, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
: I've included the key equations from the paper; people who want more can read the paper for themselves. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] ([[User talk:Dkf|talk]]) 09:34, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Under-tested cosmetic edits made to the task page at 04:44, 19 April 2016, including the injection of spaces around expressions in <math> tags, have left the task description formulae completely invisible to all browsers which display the graphic file version of formulae rather than processing the MathML (this is, in fact, the majority of browsers). The MediaWiki processor does not currently expect such spaces, and generates syntactically ill-formed HTML if they are introduced. Other aspects of these cosmetic edits may further compound the problem. [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 10:38, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
