Mathematician Gives Pi Advice to the 'Simpsons'
While David Bailey's research into the digits of Pi is well known, a little-known factoid resulting from this work came to light in the June 10 online edition of Science News. The column delves into the role of mathematics in "The Simpsons" TV show. In one episode, Apu claims he can recite Pi to 40,000 decimal places, with the last digit being one. To get that detail right, the show's writing team faxed a query to NASA, where mathematician David Bailey -- who worked for the agency from 1984-1998, before joining the Lab -- obliged with the digit in question.
