Calculating Pi From Block Collusions. #pi #math #maths

What happens when a massive block collides with a smaller one, bouncing against a wall? Pure mathematical magic.

This phenomenon is known as Galperin's billiard-ball playing method for finding Pi. Made with Python.

In this simulation, the total number of collisions surprisingly equals the first digits of Pi (π)!

By increasing the mass of the larger block, the code counts more and more decimals of Pi.
