Re: significant digits
Euman, 22/7 is *very* significant, because it cannot be represented in binary
computers as a native binary numeral. In the formula:
C = pi * D
how many digits does one need to define the planet Pluto's position with enough
accuracy to hit it with a satellite, considering you also must slingshot the
satalite off
several other planets first, over a time period of several years?
Not that i expect anyone to use Eu to do this, but i *did* say it was a useless
exercize
of a string math library with my first post on this topic.
