Probably my favorite approximation of pi. With four symbols, you have like 18 digits.
Do you, though? Pi starts 3.141592, but 7/22 starts 3.142857, already wrong by the 4th digit.
355/113 is my favorite
Using 7 chars to represent 8. Now that’s efficiency!
The efficiency is that it is easy to remember 11 33 55
If you want efficiency, just remember the number and cut the operation.
Nowhere did he state that the 18 digits would be correct
like 18 digits
The simile stands.
Shit! You’re right! Guys… I uhh, I gotta go stop a satellite launch.
