Search the first four billion binary digits of Pi for a string... Enter the string in hex (4 bit, 0-9A-F) or character (5 bit, Assuming pi is normal, we have the following probabilities: , together with Canadian mathematicians Peter Borwein and Simon Plouffe, found a new formula for pi. This formula permits one to calculate the n-th binary or hexadecimal digits of pi, without having to calculate any of the preceding n-1 digits. This formula was discovered by a computer, using Bailey's implementation of Ferguson's PSLQ algorithm. More recently (2001), Bailey and colleague Richard Crandall of Reed College have shown that the existence of this new formula has significant implications for the age-old question: Are the digits of pi random?
