;;; (pi <n> <d>) prints out <n> digits of pi in groups of <d> digits.

;;; 'Spigot' algorithm origionally due to Stanly Rabinowitz.
;;; This algorithm takes time proportional to the square of <n>/<d>.
;;; This fact can make comparisons of computational speed between systems
;;; of vastly differring performances quicker and more accurate.

;;; Try (pi 100 5)
;;; The digit size <d> will have to be reduced for larger <n> or an
;;; overflow error will occur (on systems lacking bignums).

;;; It your Scheme has bignums try (pi 1000).

;;; (pi <n>) prints out <n> digits of pi.

;;; 'Spigot' algorithm originally due to Stanly Rabinowitz:
;;;
;;; PI = 2+(1/3)*(2+(2/5)*(2+(3/7)*(2+ ... *(2+(k/(2k+1))*(4)) ... )))
;;;
;;; where 'k' is approximately equal to the desired precision of 'n'
;;; places times 'log2(10)'.
;;;
;;; This version takes advantage of "bignums" in SCM to compute all
;;; of the requested digits in one pass!  Basically, it calculates
;;; the truncated portion of (PI * 10^n), and then displays it in a
;;; nice format.

(define (bigpi digits)
  (let* ((n (* 10 (quotient (+ digits 9) 10)))	; digits in multiples of 10

;;; (e <n>) prints out <n> digits of 'e'.

;;; Uses the formula:
;;;
;;;           1    1    1    1          1
;;;   e = 1 + -- + -- + -- + -- + ... + --
;;;           1!   2!   3!   4!         k!
;;;
;;; where 'k' is determined using the desired precision 'n' in:
;;;
;;;    n  <  ((k * (ln(k) - 1)) / ln(10))
;;;
;;; which uses Stirling's formula for approximating ln(k!)
;;;
;;; This program takes advantage of "bignums" in SCM to compute all
;;; the requested digits at once!  Basically, it calculates the
;;; fractional part of 'e' (i.e., e-2) as a fraction of two bignums
;;; 'e_n' and 'e_d', determines the integer part of (e_n * 10^n)/e_d,
;;; and then displays it in a nice format.
