How many digits of Pi do you know?

[Malkom]

I recently started memorizing more pi digits and just wondered how many you guys know, currently I know 102 but plan to learn around 300, I have no idea why.

Used to know 60 learned 50 in 10 minutes and then 10 the next day but then gave up. Now I know 5 digits lol

I only know 8 and I've thought about learning more but I just never did.
That's why I never responded, but then I saw you in another thread.
So how have you been learning more digits?

I knew 300 digits back when I was in elementary school. I lost interest after trying to do more and failing but somehow the first 130 have survived in my long-term memory lol

I remember the digits in pairs and then try to find patterns in those numbers. For the first 10 digits I remember
(14, 15 = 1 x, 1 x + 1, ascending) (92 = 92, separates two series) (65, 35 = x 5, x/2 5, descending). The larger chunks you learn the more patterns you find, if you're really interested i could post my whole "system", but that would take away all the fun for you.
It's easy to find these patters, I learned almost 200 digits in just a few days. I'm currently at 220 digits but now when there's no school I'm going to learn a lot more.

E: I use http://www.eveandersson.com/pi/pitrainer/ I always enter all digits at the same time since my system isnt periodical, this is probably not recommended and if you really want to learn lots of digits (1000+) you should ask Mats Bergsten.

I will definitely try out the pattern thing this summer.
Especially now with that website, I had no idea that existed.
Should go a lot quicker that way too. In high school I'd just recite the numbers in
my head during class and add digits one by one. Pretty much gave up right from the start.

I remember writing a little app in JavaScript, back in ~2012, that would generate a few hundred digits of pi (or e, or a few other constants) and you'd have to type in the digits as quickly as possible. A few minutes of daily practice here and there, and then I had 200 digits in my muscle memory. (I think I had 50 digits of e memorised too, though I've since forgotten everything after 2.71828182845904523536.)

Nowadays I just mentally recite the digits every so often (once a month?) to make sure they're all still in my head. I think they are, but I haven't checked that I'm actually recalling the digits correctly lol.

just looking at this post makes me remember of MMAP and wishes he would post videos...

2.71838182845904523536... Is e not pi, pi is 3.141582653589793238462643383279502884197169...
