π Creates A New World Record | Video and Blog

Most people know the value of Pi as 3.14 but it's gotten longer and longer over time as we find effective ways of calculation. Last year Timothy Mullican created a world record when he calculated the value of pi up to 50 trillion digits. However his record seems to have been broken. Researchers from Switzerland have used a supercomputer and calculated 62.8 trillion digits of Pi.

They used a rig powered by two 32-core AMD Epyc 7542 processors with 1 TB of RAM and a program called y-Cruncher. They had 38 hard drives with 16 TB of storage each. 34 of which were used for the process while four were used to store the new value of Pi. The calculation took 108 days and nine hours. The last 10 digits of newly discovered Pi are 781792464.
