Someone recently came up with an algorithm which would calculate arbitrary bits
of the value of PI, as in binary digits. So you could calculate the trillionth
place 0 or 1 without all the intervening bits. Should you find a use

The following program will compute pi to three (3) places
(approximately :-)
#define _ -F<00 || --F-OO--;
int F=00,OO=00;

There aren't terribly many useful non-Euclidean
geometries for which there is a "the ratio".

And, of course, let's not forget the time that B.S. Johnson managed to
make pi equal exactly three

1.6 G decimals in 20 hours on a machine with 16G RAM, running
x86_64 Fedora 12.
No way near a record, but I don't have access
to a machine with more RAM...
