Finally at least one of the assignemnt for Warwick is finished. one down one more to go. Never realised how much i dislike economics, especially industrial economics. Some sadist professors like the idea of seeing the students squirm infront of them, asking for clues and directions on how to solve some supid fucking eco question about maximaxing this and that, looking for a single nod or facial movement inorder to gather some sense of wether you are on the right path or not.

Wonder what is happening to my TIMES subscrition, I seem to have stopped receiving the magazine so appologies for the lack of reports of useless statistics or facts. However, I did read about this one intersting topic yesterday. Pi, a number which has facinated mathematicians and non mathematiciaon alike, for centuries. Math lovers even have a day on which they celebrate the number ( 14th March). So far 1.2411 trillion digits of pi have been calculated and a Japanese guy has memorized 60,000. A good way to keep busy I guess.

Using a simpel method you can derive pi without the complex knowledge of geomatery: Write a computer program which draws a circle in a square. then fire "bullets" at this diagram. The ratio of bullets that hit the circle and those that hit both the circle and the square, is the number pi. The mentods seems to generate pi to an amazingly precise precision.

Cool

better get on with my refree report which has been stagnant for the past week and a half! Must finsih!
