Japanese businessman using a home-built computer has taken calculations of the mathematical concept of 'pi' to the trillions of digits and won a world record for his labors. Shigeru Kondo, a systems engineer in his 50s, calculated pi - the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter - to five trillion digits, almost doubling the accuracy of the previous world record. Last week, the calculation was recognized by Guinness World Records with a certificate mailed to Kondo.
