# Implementation of algorithms for computing digits of pi

This repository contains a collection of multiple implementations of algorithms
for computing pi. The code has in genenral not been optimized as it was written
primarily for fun.

See [this article](https://thomaslabs.org/projects/compute-pi.html) for more information.

Currently included:
* [Chudnovsky](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chudnovsky_algorithm) with binary splitting for better performance.
* [Bailey, Borwein and Plouffe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximations_of_pi#Efficient_methods)
