:::Hm. It might be worth scrapping the task and creating more defined ones, such as [[Pi/Bailey-Borwein-Plouffe]], and leave the "Pi/" namespace available to other specific implementations.--[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 15:03, 26 July 2011 (UTC) |

:::[[Pi]] can be implemented without use of a spigot algorithm regardless of efficiency, because that algorithm is not good at being efficient at all. The C program I wrote continuous generates Pi digits faster than the unbound spigot, despite the algorithm used was totally unsuitable for the task. --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 00:07, 27 July 2011 (UTC) |
