Some interesting facts-

Record for calculation: 2.7 trillion digits (by Fabrice Bellard, December
2009)
Record for memorization: 67,890 digits (by Chao Lu, 2005)
How random? There are no occurences of the sequence 123456 in the first
million digits of pi

They also have the first 10,000 digits shown. Enjoy - mike
