A sloppily put together Scratch program that shows the first billion digits of pi. I realized that with the tools that Turbowarp (Scratch but with extra stuff) offers, you could probably make a program that fetches the digits of pi on demand from an external source (MIT has a collection of the first billion, and the record is 202.112 trillion), creating a virtually infinite pi program. So that's exactly what I did! 

I downloaded a billion digits from MIT and split it into 500 pieces. I then hosted the digits on Netlify because MIT seems to have not implemented Cross-Origin Resource Sharing.

I then went crazy and coded the entire thing in a night. I'll eventually Scratch-ify it and store the digits in variables if possible, but not today. I don't think Turbowarp links are allowed on Scratch, but if you want my Netlify digits, go to pi-digits.netlify.app/xaa for the first 2M, then xab for the next, then xac, eventually xba, all the way to xpt or something like that. I forgot exactly how far it goes.
