Just 3.14? Maybe ten or so? One hundred?… How many digits do you currently know, and how many do you think you can memorize?

Hi, it’s me Joon again, happy day after Pi Day! I memorized more than 60 now!
3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445…
When in highschool, my buddy and I would exchange shouted digits of Pi even during football. We were nerds, of course.
I am now 52 and I can still recite the first 50.
Somehow, this goes to show something, although I’m not sure what..
So far, 441 digits:
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419796939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706798214808651328230664709384460955058223172535940812848111745028410270193852110555964462294895493038196442881097566593344612847564823378678316527120190914564856692346034861045432664821339360726024914127372458700660631558817488152092096282925409171536436789259036001133053054882046652138414695194151160943305727036575959195309218611738193261179
I’ve memorized more than twice as many digits since last Pi Day!
So far:
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706798214808651
Not bad for a twelve-year-old!
My definition of pi has been 3.14159 for 65 years and that worked well for me. However I read today on Wikipedia (see Pi Day) that 22/7 is actually a more acurate definition of pi which works out to:
3.14285714285714857
This repeats itself every 6 digits so is quite easy to memorize. If this is true all you people have wasted a great deal of effort. Can anybody confirm this?
I’m 11 years old and I memorized 65 digits. 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923…
3.141592653589793238462 so far and I’m trying to memorize more.
3.14159265358979323846264338579350288…
That’s 36 and I’m in 8th grade!
I’m 11 years old, and I started my Pi memorizing career a year ago on Pi day. I was fascinated with the number. I took a long break, and now I’m at it again…
3.141592653589793238462643383 is as far as I can ACCURATELY memorize so far.
3.14159265358979
I wanted to memorize just enough so that on a TI-92 series calculator* I can manually put in all digits for PI if I wanted to, and I wanted to stop at a digit that rounded and truncated to would be the same.
I looked up the next few digits
3.1415926535897932…
*TI-92, TI-89, Voyage 200, etc…
p.s. TI-92 stops at a digit where rounded to and truncated to are NOT the same, so if you memorize TI-92 series PI decimal number and decide to go further, you’ll have to relearn a digit!
p.s.2. 3.1415926535897932… last digit is OK to memorize. PI’s next decimal digit would cause it to round and truncate to the same digit, 2.
I learned 5 digits when I was young (now 58)
3.14159
That exceeds the limit of accuracy for all my (and most other’s) needs
I first took up memorizing Pi out of boredom at work (my job doesn’t require much IQ)but now use it to keep my brain sharp. I haven’t been keeping up the last few years due to outside circumstances but recently started again. So far I’m to 3.14159265358979323846
100! (For a while, it has only been 80 or so, but I finally got to 100!)
3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679
I should probably find something better to do with my time and memory, but I can’t help it!
I know 110 digits but my friend Dan knows 226
3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679821480865132823066470938446095505822317253594081284811174502841027019385211055596446229489549303819644288109756659334461284756482337867831652712019091456485669234603486104543266482133936072602491412737245870066063155881748815209209628292540917153643678925903600113305305488204665213841
started earlier this year, kept reciting them out loud
26!!!
I’ve been working for a few weeks now on memorizing all the digits of pi. So far I have these digits fully memorized:
3.14
3.141592654 is all I currently know. I should make it a point to memorize more digits each year. (btw, Pi day is also my birthday
)
3.14159265358979323, memorized over 50 digits of pi about 5 years ago, thats all i got now.
To the person who said this:
#
3.142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857182457
to remember its very simple
just remember 3.14 = (22/7)
double 14 which is 28
double 28 which is 56 and add one into it to make it 57
thereafter keep repeating this sequence

You are [wrong]… Pi is an irrational non-repeating number that starts with 3.14159 as evidenced by multiple people below… It is not just 22/7 which is a repeating number. Do you know anything about math or can you read at all considering the starting digits of Pi were posted numerous time before your post and you should have realized your post was horribly inaccurate.
Just 3.14 i’m only in fifth grade today is my birthday
3.14159265358979323846264338327950…
Used to know more. It seems the learning curve favors consistent memorization, not years of slacking…
I know 150:
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510

working on learning 500 digits
3.141592654
That is how many digits are on the TI-84 plus silver edition calculator when you press the pi key and then hit enter.
3.141592653589793…
Working on it!
I am 12 and have learned 159. My goal is to make 200 digits. I love pi! I am such a nerd.

3.14159265358979323846
I only know up to 3.14159265, but my friend has memorized over 100 digits!
i only know #.14159265. however, my friend knows around 101 to 110
Right now, I’ve memorized up to 3.14159…
I think I can memorize about ten digits after the decimal if I really work hard for it.
Has anyone ever wondered how much Stonehenge looks like Pi?
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716-not too bad, but i haven’t worked on it in awhile.
I am eleven and I have memorized:
3.14159265
I learned it in five minutes last year for a math test. People who sit there and memorize it have WAY too much time on their hands.
Still trying to memorize 67,890 digits — set by the world record holder Chao Lu:

Note that he did NOT take any breaks whatsoever!

i have a little melody in my head to remember
3.14159
2653589
same # of characters and each row ends in 9
unfortunately, that’s all i can remember :-/
When I was in school MANY years ago, my math teacher taught us how to remember PI by counting the number of letters in each work of the following history of PI.
“Now I need a rhyme recalling PI. Greeks …. ancient Eqyptians…”
31415926…..79….
Unfortunately, I forget the rest of it, but it used to continue beyond 30 decimal places. Does anyone else know this helpful tool?
3.14159
3.1415926535
I think it much easier to memorize the series equations that will give any number of digits depending on values submitted. I remember 10 as this may be needed in some very critical calculations. Our technology and what we can do in the physical with matter may give us a need for even more digits. Then, if I am still kicking, I may go to more.
Keep on learning! Keep teaching!
I only know the ones that are important. 22/7

used to know 280, forget em all, now I know 50ish
Im working on memorizing more but all I’ve got is
3.1415926535
As I said, I’m working on more.
I’m only 11
3.14159265358979384346264338327
3.14159265358979323
I don’t know past that but I’m about to memorize more for a contest on Monday. Whoever knows the most in my 7th grade class wins a free pie… xD
I had 767 memorized at one point (The Feynman Point) a number of years ago, but I forgot them rather quickly. Now, I have only 200 memorized, but I have them down 100% solid. In fact, when doctors were putting me under for surgery after I got a piece of steak stuck in my esophagus, they asked me to count backwards from 100, but I recited pi for them instead. I have video footage of myself reciting 562 decimal places while juggling on my hard drive. Fun!
I know 3.14159265358979323846
It serves no purpose i had to for school
All u people have way to much time on your hands
I memorized 55 digits to the right of the decimal point when I was in the 8th grade. I am 28 now and for whatever reason I cannot seem to expunge it from my memory.
3.141592653589793238 – 19
It doesn’t serve any purpose though.
Time memorizing hundreds of digits it better put to use learning important concepts.
I kmow 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419769
It’s that time of year again! This years recitation is 500 digits.
I have 3.14159265358979323846264338327 (Not Rounded)
Hello! I am 10 and I have memorized 101 digits of pi.
I am 10 and I have memorized 101 digits of pi.
I know 17 (3.14159265358979323) Used to be 35 but then i 4got them all!
i had 52 but now i forgot due to well i never use it lolz im only 15 and i know 3.14159265358979323
for now, 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820974944592307816406286208886428034825
I currently know 200 and think I can make it to 250 by next year.
