[math-fun] 1.24 trillion digits of Pi

hello, there is more, Kanada used Machin formula and another one(?) to verify the computation apparently and made basic statistics about the distribution of digits (0 to 9), that's about it. see the article of Peterson in : http://www.sciencenews.org/20021214/mathtrek.asp see also : http://www.super-computing.org/ I find it surprising that he took that formula which is by far not the best.
