+# Implementation of algorithms for computing digits of pi
+
+This repository contains a collection of multiple implementations of algorithms
+for computing pi. The code has in genenral not been optimized as it was written
+primarily for fun.
+
+See [this article]() for more information.
+
+Currently included:
+- [Chudnovsky](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chudnovsky_algorithm) with binary splitting for better performance.
