...the story of PI and CIRCLE

Today, the radio guy told me some Google guy broke a record: Apparently this guy managed to calculate - in just around 4 months with the support of 25 virtual machines from the Google Cloud - the staggering number of 31.4 trillion π digits.

*Those who don't know: PI is this number with endless number of digits. We use PI to calculate circles: the circumference of circles to be more exact. A circle with a diameter of 1, has a circumference of exactly PI, which is approximately 3,14159.*

The funny thing with PI and CIRCLE is the fact that PI is not an exact number - at least not for humans and even computers - and the Circle represents in various ways the idea of '**endless**'; In its strict sense no beginning and no end; but also in a more abstract sense: think of he wedding ring for instance.

## PI and CIRCLE belong together!
## No doubt about that :)

it was one of the first movies from director Darren Aronofsky, known from *Requiem For A Dream, The Fountain, The Wrestler, Black Swan* or his newest and very hard movie called *Mother!*
