The previous feeling of congratulation accorded to a person capable of reciting Pi to ten digits is grossly fainted and pushed back by the new record established at Santa Clara University by Ed Karrels. The above named researcher broke the record by calculating Darren Aronofsky favorite number and the ratio calculated now has eight quadrillion places following the decimal point.

By learning where the University is located and the details of gear of hardware maker used, the surprise no more remains a surprise. Karrels shall be displaying new digit creation at GPU Technology conference scheduled to be held at San Jose where demonstration shall take place using CUDA-voodo essential to harness entire Kepler based Computing capability and associated power.

Majority of the ladies and gentlemen know about the Pi Day. It has a meaning reflecting tons of maths and pie/pi floods News Feed witnessed by Spartan. There is no dearth of the creative celebrations for the date which very closely resembles the ratio of circles indicating existence of relation between the circumference and diameter.

Let not the kidding about Pi spoil the festivities fueled by internet explosion reminding everyone about the fun about Pi Day enjoyed by all for many years is very suddenly heading for its luster loss.

The efforts should be focused on taking it back from crass meme-athon. There is nothing to worry in case you have forgotten to send a card which can be again made up on 28th June.

It is true there is no marking for it on the calendars, the math nerds are capable of doing self counting, if you still do not know 14th March is written as 3/14, which are the three first Pie digits. It is hence treated as a small occasion for geek holiday filled with variety and has turned out to be right time for a good holiday and celebration for people since many past years.

The latest to come is from musician Michael John Blake, who went on to interpret Pi to the level of first 31 decimal having relation to the musical notes and created a song which he played at 157 beats in every minute, which is just half of the figure 314.

As the things surface Blake was never the one to have thought about this idea. It was Lars Erickson a composer, whose self contribution resulted in Pi Symphony some time back and has raised issues of copy right on You Tube in respect of who is the owner of Pi represented in musical creation.

It is worth checking both the versions to find the difference.
