For pi day, i reminded myself that the integral of exp(-x²) between -/+ ∞ = √π

And let's not forget the classic...
Thanks #Euler

@spacemagick @kat an important one:
Pi= 16arctan(1/5)-4arctan(1/239) (John Manchin) led to the most digits calculated by hand (over 500)
@spacemagick @kat In the same way that
1+2+3+… = -1/12
this is
1×2×3×… = √(2π)
