This is what allows pifs to work!
Thats very cool. It brings to mind some sort of espionage where spies are exchanging massive messages contained in 2 numbers. The index and the Metadata length. All the other spy has to do is pass it though pifs to decode. Maybe adding some salt as well to prevent someone figuring it out.
I'm a layman here and not a mathematician but how does it store the complete value of pi and not rounded up to a certain amount? Or do one of the libraries generate that?
I want that project continues so hard. Sounds amazing
I can't tell if this is a joke or real code... like for this sentence below.
The cat is back.
Will that repo seriously run until it finds where that is in pi? However long it might take, hours, days, years, decades, and then tell you, so you can look it up quickly?
Thanks. I love these kind of fun OpenSource community projects/ideas/jokes whatever. The readme reminds me of ed
