I'll try to explain my current project
which isn't specifically about computing the decimals of Pi,
but how the BBP type algorithm works as based on probability ideas.
I don't know since this whole thing went in layers:
1) the idea of BBP as probability based time series: p[n]
Sum[p[n]/scale^n,{n,0,infinity]]
2) the idea of conjugate constants based on summing;1-p[n]
Sum[(1-p[n])/scale^n,{n,0,infinity]]
3) the idea of using scaled or binary probability based
entropy on Pi and e ( which came out near -1 and 1)
Sum[-p[n]*Log[p[n]]/Log[scale],{n,0,infinity]]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(information_theory)
4) finally the idea that there should "exist" constants
at scales that would have Riemann type attractors {0,1,Infinity}
and zero being the perfect second and third law of thermodynamics crystal.
5) manufacture of a unitary ( binary) entropy probability based constant.
Alexander Povolotsky gave me the original idea:
> What do you think of Ray Solomonoff's approach ?
which gave the idea of "Algorithmic Probability".
All I did was figure out a way to compute
probability in terms of scaled BBP/ Infinite sums.
Looking at the idea that the fundamental constants
involve the metamathamatics of the physical universe
made me think that they might have information
in an information theory sense, that is entropy.
Mathematica: constant from entropy one for scale=5/3;
Clear[p, n, s]
$MaxExtraPrecision = 200
s = 2*Sum[1/(5/3)^n, {n, 0, Infinity}]
Solve[-x*Log[x]/Log[5/3] - 2/(3*(5/3)^n) == 0, x]
p[n_] := -(2/3)*(3/5)^n*Log[5/3]/(ProductLog[-(2/3)*(3/5)^n*Log[5/3]])
a = Sum[p[n + 1]/(5/3)^(n + 1), {n, 0, Infinity}]

I have :
{constant, scale, entropy}
I've plotted: (d means change in);
dconstant=0->{scale, entropy}
dentropy=0->{scale,constant}
Mathematica: {scale, entropy}
Adjusted BBP probability scale 16:
p[n_] = (4/(8*n + 1) - 2/(8*n + 4) - 1/(8*n + 5) - 1/(8*n + 6))/3
Entropy with a scale adjusted to the 3 factor:
H2 = NSum[
If[(Log[16] - Log[3]/n) == 0, 0, -p[n]*Log[p[n]]/(Log[16] -
Log[3]/n)], {n,
0, 3000}]=0.17745078078631668
Adjusted BBP probability scale -4:
p[n_] = (2/(4*n + 1) + 2/(4*n + 2) + 1/(4*n + 3))/(10/3)
H4 = NSum[-p[n]*Log[p[n]]/(Log[4] - n*Log[10/3]), {n, 0, 3000}]

Plotting them scale against entropy:
gs = ListPlot[{{16, 0.17745078078631668}, {1.27027, 1}, {-4,
1.2117464664787847}}, PlotRange -> All]
f[x_] = Fit[{{16,
0.17745078078631668}, {1.27027, 1}, {-4, 1.2117464664787847}},
{1, x},
x]
1.0291016273151843`\[InvisibleSpace]- 0.05260689003919656` x
gf = Plot[f[x], {x, -4, 16}]
Show[{gs, gf}]
Solve[f[x] == 0, x]
{{x -> 19.56210729333015`}}
Mathematica:{scale,constant}
A Log-Log plot is so close to a straight line I can't tell the difference:
Clear[a, f, x]
a = {{13/11, 5.4227041737281112595241530114}, {7/5,

(* makes up the log-log array*)
b = Table[{Log[a[[n]][[1]]], Log[a[[n]][[2]]]}, {n, 1, Length[a]}]
g1 = ListPlot[b]
f[x_] = Fit[b, {1, x}, x]
g2 = Plot[f[x], {x, 0, 1.25}]
Show[{g1, g2}]
That result gives the relationship as:
Log[constant]=2.034595683218906257862054432 -
3.375606246451309569435876213 *Log[scale]
gg=Plot[constant[x], {x, 1, 5}]
ga = ListPlot[a]
Show[{gg, ga}]
Is resulting graph is very close to right on.
Log-Log plots are used in fractals to get the dimension of
relationships;for instance, entropy dimension in box counting
of fractal pictures.
