== Gold Credit for pi and The Harmonic Series ==
REXX has already claimed all the extra credits for this task, however for those implementations which can accept a fractional a_series a Gold Credit has been found for demonstrating the relationship between pi and The Harmonic Series:
:<math>\pi/2 = 1 + \cfrac{1}{1 + \cfrac{1}{1/2 + \cfrac{1}{1/3+ \ddots}}}</math>
This was published in American Mathmatical Monthly, December 2008 by Dr. Tom Picket, an associate Professor in the Physics Faculty of The University of Southern Indiana.
