{"product_id":"pi-to-500k-decimal-places-jerry-miller-9780942208528","title":"pi to 500k decimal places","description":"The power of pi is not immedately evident from a glance at this small Greek letter. Yet the existence of pi has confounded mathematicians and engineers for centuries. What does it mean to have a real number that cannot be stated exactly? What is a number that does not appear to have any recurring pattern? And why does it crop up in unexpected places that have no apparent connection with the circumference of a circle? These questions are not answered in this book, but you do get a glimpse of the phenomenon-real numbers to grapple with. A bit of the history of pi. And a program designed to generate as many digits as you'd like.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jerry Miller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0942208528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780942208528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bandanna Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/17\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.25d","brand":"Jerry Miller","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45331727515903,"sku":"9780942208528","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2108815c-1e81-4767-b28a-bb48d60fdee0.jpg?v=1713970733","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pi-to-500k-decimal-places-jerry-miller-9780942208528","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
