well ...to how many decimal places can you recite pi?

NOTE: this thread was created because my friend told me that at his school they have someone who can recite pi to the 1000th decimal place ...so since this forum is full of highly intelligent people, i was curious to how far you can go.

Of course, if I did actually recite that many digits, I wouldn't exactly have a life :eek:
1 second a number, 4 million numbers, 46ish days straight. But that isn't gonna happen :p
46 days of your life isn't that much. You are more than welcome to attempt the challenge. XD

I can recite it to 90 or so digits.
Might have dropped off a few numbers but by now :)

I make the numbers into patterns and it helps me remember them.

Not that it's any use.


I also know a girl in a neighbouring school who can recite it to 500+ digits.

Yeh, wtf.
