We will call the Golden Ratio (or Golden number) after a greek letter, Phi ) here, although some writers and mathematicians use another Greek letter, tau ). Also, we shall use phi (note the lower case p) for a closely related value. A simple definition of Phi There are just two numbers that remain the same when they are squared namely and . Other numbers get bigger and some get smaller when we square them: Squares that are bigger Squares that are smaller is 4 is 9 is 100 One definition of Phi (the golden section number) is that to square it you just add 1 or, in mathematics:

CHAPTER TWO: SIXES 5. DELPHIC DICE COMBINATIONS WITH TWO DICE ROTA/TAROT TWENTY-ONE (21) ... THE CUBE OF SPACE II. 5. DELPHIC DICE Hermes the messenger and culture-carrier brought the art of writing and the science of number, the mason's craft of piling one stone upon another (and much else) to archaic Greece, including a magical cube: the die. The complex and frequently contradictory nature of Hermes suggests that he is a very old god. Some elements (among them dice and gaming) reveal him to be a cultural adaptation of the god Thoth, the Egyptian lord of magical lore. In some Greek myths, it is Hermes who gets credit for inventing dice, whichas god of shepherdshe is said to have fashioned from the astragaloi , or the knucklebones from either sheep or goats. In another, even earlier tradition, a Mediterranean precursor of Hermes, perhaps closer to the Egyptian Thoth, used the more nearly cubic heel bones of the boibalis , or Libyan antelope. In The White Goddess , Robert Graves relates tali , or dice, to divination and the alphabet. The figure of Talus, one manifestation of the lame-king type, like the biblical Jacob or the Fisher King from the Grail legend, was associated with smithcraft: Talus in one account was the son, or maternal nephew, to Smith Daedalus, in another was forged in the furnace of Smith Hephaestus.

66. Ivars Peterson's MathTrek - Pick A Digit, Any Digit Plouffe, for one, has found a way to compute individual decimal digits of pi Ivars Peterson is the mathematics and physics writer and online Editor at http://www.maa.org/mathland/mathtrek_3_2_98.html

Search MAA Online MAA Home Ivars Peterson's MathTrek March 2, 1998 Pick a Digit, Any Digit One of the most amazing mathematical results of the last few years was the discovery of a surprisingly simple formula for computing digits of the number pi. Unlike previously known methods, this one allows you to calculate isolated digits - - without computing and keeping track of all the preceding numbers. No one had previously even conjectured that such a digit-extraction algorithm for pi was possible, says Steven Finch of MathSoft, Inc., in Cambridge, Mass. The only catch is that the formula works for hexadecimal (base 16) or binary digits but not for decimal digits. Thus, it's possible to determine that the forty billionth binary digit of pi is 1, followed by 00100100001110. . . . However, there's no way to convert these numbers into decimal form without knowing all the binary digits that come before the given string. In hexadecimal form, the number pi is written as 3.243F6A8885A308D313198A2E0. . . , where the letters stand in for the hexadecimal equivalent of the base-10 numbers 10 (A), 11 (B), 12 (C), 13 (D), 14 (E), and 15 (F). It's straightforward to convert a hexadecimal expression into binary form but not into decimal form. The novel scheme for computing individual hexadecimal digits of pi was found by David H. Bailey of the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, Calif., Peter B. Borwein of Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia, and Simon M. Plouffe, now at the University of Quebec in Montreal.
