PI is an interesting Mathematical constant (PI=3.14159).

PI constant is something special.

• PI is an irrational number. That is, its value cannot be expressed exactly as a fraction m/n, where m and n are integers.
• Its decimal representation never ends or repeats.
• It is also a transcendental number, which means that no finite sequence of algebraic operations on integers (powers, roots, sums, etc.) can be equal to its value.

We all know the value of PI is approximately 3.14159. This is the approximate value of 5 decimal places.

Do you know the value of PI with 2000 decimal places?

David Webb had created a python script which will create this value.
