To see
the result of Machin Formula I prepared an applet to calculate PI value
up to an arbitrary (user supplied) number of figures.
Usage is straightforward: type in the desired number of figures and
then press "Calculate" button.
Beware that calculation for number above 200 becomes quite slow (and
uses considerably resources of your
computer!), so I decided to let the user decide to give up: after
having pressed "Calculate" button, this changes to "Stop" to let you
interrupt calculations.
Applet can be dowloaded and used offline, also, I provide source code,
everything is under GPL license, see main Applet's main page for
details.
