There was an article posted a while back asking for an infinite 
PI program. Did anyone have such a program ? The sender said to
reply by mail, but if someone has such a program could they just
post it here?

Also, does someone have a way to verify that PI to x number of 
digits is correct. Lets say I have a file with a sequence of numbers
how can I prove that these are  indeed PI?
