I was scanning through one million decimals of pi, and I saw a bunch of 5’s together. Using a browser search, I found that there were 2 places with five 5’s.
There is
1 instance of 00000.
1 of 11111.
1 of 22222.
2 of 33333.
0 of 44444.
2 of 55555 (where I started.)
2 of 66666
0 of 77777
0 of 88888
3 of 99999 and
1 of 999999 (6 digits).
No other number has 6 digits. It even has a name, the “Feynman Point.”
(I am selling a woman on NextDoor my HP12c for $5, and I wanted to preload it with Pi.)
HP 12c with Pi – $5
Looks like an HP12C to me. Did you say it’s an 11C?
I’m wondering how you got that value of pi on that display. Pi starts:
3.141592653. . . . not
3.14592653
maybe you should try this post again.
I stand corrected David! Went to school with an 11C and business with a 12C. 11C has better street cred. And sure, I probably messed up the digits, which I just hand typed. There is no pi option in a 12C!
None of this was the point of the post, though. It was about the 5’s then 9’s. Hope I got that right.
