RE: Estimating PI without a calculator
Or if you just have a 4 function simple one...
An reasonably accurate estimate can be done by taking the sequence: 1 1 3 3 5 5 and putting the old division box /---- in the middle (sorry for the poor drawing but this way helps remember to process for some) so that you have: ____ 113 / 355 or rather, 355 ---- 113 to get something like: 3.14159292035 (on my HP50) On a clear disk, you can seek forever. |
