An Archimedes spiral displaying the 100.000 first digits -base 10- of 'pi' [Une spirale d'Archimède montrant les 100.000 premières décimales -base 10- de 'pi'].




Starting from the center of the picture, the spheres are numbered (1, 2, 3,...) when following an Archimedes spiral defined as follows:
                    rho  = srqt(N)
                    teta = 2.pi.sqrt(N)
The luminance of the sphere colors is an ascending function of the N-th digit of 'pi' (from dark blue -0- to white -9-).
