The new HPC system at the Graubünden University of Applied Sciences is now occupied with complex research tasks – but for the past few months, it’s had its fingers in other πs. After 108 days of calculation, the system has calculated π to upwards of 62.8 trillion digits, besting the previous record of roughly 50 trillion digits by 12.8 trillion in less than half the calculation time.
