- Spigot_algorithm abstract "A spigot algorithm is a particular type of algorithm used to compute the value of a mathematical constant such as π or e, which can generate a stream of output digits without needing to reuse them. The name derives from the usage of "spigot" in some varieties of English to mean a tap or valve controlling the flow of a liquid.Interest in such algorithms was spurred in the early days of computational mathematics by extreme constraints on memory, and an algorithm for calculating the digits of e appears in a paper by Sale, 1968. The name "Spigot algorithm" appears to have been coined by Stanley Rabinowitz and Stan Wagon, whose algorithm for calculating the digits of π is sometimes referred to as "the spigot algorithm for π".The spigot algorithm of Rabinowitz and Wagon is bounded, in the sense that the number of required digits must be specified in advance. Jeremy Gibbons (2004)uses the term "streaming algorithm" to mean one which can be run indefinitely, without a prior bound. A further refinement is an algorithm which can compute a single arbitrary digit, without first computing the preceding digits: an example is the Bailey-Borwein-Plouffe formula, a digit extraction algorithm for π which produces hexadecimal digits.".
