The mathematician Zu ChongzhiZu Chongzhi (429-500) of song in the Southern Dynasties period. When he was young, his knowledge, loves math, who likes to study astronomy. Zu Chongzhi's biggest achievement was in mathematics, he obtained a more accurate ratio. PI is the ratio between the circumference and diameter of a circle, has long been known in ancient China the concept, but not quite accurate. Zu Chongzhi, summarizing the experience, decided to take advantage of the three Kingdoms period of Liu Hui's "cutting circle" came to PI. However, when computing tool is bamboo sticks, for 9-digit calculations, takes more than 130 times for repeated calculations, and prone to error. Zu Chongzhi, each counted once, repeated at least twice, until the times are identical to rows. Through some hard calculations, came to PI than 3.1415926, conclusion less than 3.1 415927.Zu Chongzhi, is the world's first numerical PI accurate to 7 decimal digits of scientists until the 15th century Arab mathematician aerkaxi (Al-Kashi) and in 16th century France mathematician vieta (Viete) projections to 16 decimal digits, overtook him. In addition, Zu Chongzhi to prepare one of the suffix (Zhui) art collection which he works on mathematics major. During math class, the suffix as the main textbook.
