作为人类的杰作——电脑,在许多方面反而胜人一筹,因而得以在各行各业大放异采。 早在其诞生不久,就出手不凡,验证了英国一名数学家的错误:这名数学家名叫香克斯,他把一生中的70年全部投入到圆周率的计算中,结果创造了当时一个了不起的记录,他把圆周率算到了小数点后的707位。然而刚面世的电脑仅仅用了40秒就打破了香克斯的记录,而且证明了香克斯的第528位计算是错误的,其后的一百多位的计算,香克斯白算了。
As a masterpiece of human beings, computers, in many respects, are superior to others and thus have been radically different in all walks of life. As early as its birth, it went out of its way to verify the mistake of a mathematician in the UK: The mathematician named Shanks, who devoted 70 years of his life to the calculation of the pi, created a Great record, he counted the pi to 707 after the decimal point. However, it took only 40 seconds for the newly released computer to break the record of Shanker, and proved that the 528th calculation of Shankery was wrong. After that, the calculation of more than one hundred places and Shakespeare calculated .
