Yes, ??? but according to Indiana, it happened already somewhere in 2006, American population = Pi * 100 millions, Pi = 3. and F(24) = 267914296, in 1995-1996, not precise. Bonne journée, Simon Plouffe Le 15/08/2012 00:44, Henry Baker a écrit :
FYI -- ok, Fibonacci lovers, on what date did the US population hit phi ?

US population hits pi
Posted by Angela Nelson, Boston.com Staff August 14, 2012 03:05 PM
The US population clock hit a mathematically significant milestone on Tuesday - pi.
The US Census Bureau estimated that the clock struck 314,159,265 residents just after 2:29 p.m. That figure is pi (3.14159265) times 100 million.
Pi is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circleÂ’s circumference to its diameter.
The US Census Bureau's top demographer celebrated with a pun.
“This is a once in many generations event...so go out and celebrate this American pi,” Howard Hogan said in a written statement.
