How to compute N number of Pi
I have found this formula for computing Pi value: 
But I need to compute only(for example - 1000th) number of Pi value. How I can do it with provided formula?
Thanks.
Solution
What you want is called a "spigot algorithm". Take a look at [1] in the section "BBP digit-extraction algorithm for pi". Good luck and have fun.
