While I still have 49 minutes left in pi day.

Has anyone ever set a computer program to find the longest siteswap that
appears in the first million or so digits of pi?

Does anyone with programing skills want to do this?


Unfortunately I missed doing it on pi day but did it this morning (UK).

From the first million digits of pi (http://www.piday.org/million.php), I
got a maximum siteswap length of [not 1, not 2, not 3, but] 17 throws.

Here are the first positions where each SS length appears:

1 3 Position:0
2 15 Position:3
3 141 Position:1
4 9793 Position:12
5 53589 Position:8
6 190914 Position:246
7 4709384 Position:119
8 96274956 Position:460
9 783123552 Position:3889
10 4783123552 Position:3888
11 53779914037 Position:6047
12 858900971490 Position:2598
13 6470938446095 Position:118
14 84018257113637 Position:293143
15 362867229569307 Position:394540
16 4707528448389317 Position:756835
17 05268611514962570 Position:343720

Enjoy juggling them,

PS I don't know what all the fuss is about pi, e is much nicer!


This is awesome, thanks for doing this.

I agree, e can be way more fun. The problem is there is no 71st day of
February, and there is a 14th day of march.

While we're talking about math, this is my favorite joke ever - it's an
instant geek screen - if they laugh they're probably a geek.

"why do mathematicians always confuse haloween and christmas?

Because 31 OCT = 25 DEC."

Hahahaha



Bother! I got the joke way too quickly. How bout this one?

There are 10 kinds of people in the world, those who understand binary and
those who don't.
