\[326\pi-\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{1}{\pi }+\frac{5}{\left \{\sqrt{5}\left [90+\pi ^{2}+\frac{1}{25\left ( 10+\frac{\pi }{2} \right )} \right ] \right \}^{2}}\right )\]


To be evaluated on the WP 34S (DBLOFF)

What did you guys do! 1024 is a nice, simple, power of 2. 10000000000b. You had to go and throw pi into it, no pun intended. What's pi in binary, anyway?? Oh well, it's Gerald's member number so I guess it's up to him.

Near-integers are cool, especially if they're more compact than the number of repeated 0s or 9s in the result (not the case here).
Who's #3, BTW? I've found a beautiful one for 3 (beauty lies in eye of the beholder), involving the digits 1 through 4, (Not single digits, one even repeats itself ad infinitum. 3 appears only once, in the result, of course), two instances of e and an inverse trigonometric function.
