The Square Root of 8 by Robert Nemiroff and Jerry Bonnell What follows are the first 1 million digits of the square root of 8. Actually, slightly more than 1 million digits are given here. These digits were computed by Robert Nemiroff (George Mason University and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center) checked by Jerry Bonnell (University Space Research Association and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center). They were computed during spare time on a VAX alpha class machine over the course of a weekend. We do NOT guarantee the accuracy of these digits. Although these digits have been checked once we encourage others to check them as well. We have computed at least 10 million digits of the square root of two as well as several digits of the number e and the square roots of other numbers. These are available on this mosaic server (URL: http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/htmltest/rjn.html). We welcome comments. --Robert Nemiroff and Jerry Bonnell The square root of eight = 2.8284271247461900976033774484193961571393437507538961463533594759814649569242 14077700775068655283145470027692461824594049849672111701474425288242994199871662 82644533185501118551159990100230556412114294021911994321194054906919372402945703 48372817783972191046584609686174286429016795252072559905028159793745067930926636 17659281241230516704790109491500575519923459671150440675063714022708749206816997 69432077379994139800963006108805558063290849564613698587383724316115692622319333 74260260312371379744744705770185297224989954308436668408571372120293649441542871 70974831131413935530744045297089403171760324151694984531445200417116893304291679 77878887418531836006227764929363141652602011897174080063729606843897945565812820 90145273762627479710512234644080490182455400453882255147254560991476217935008036 73973673690145159872945812152599388276095130964745799436065360494884125853824971 81043620089196843011822404988826834570629562116072067421546183657386294203422233 67833163453778839517433164304256459036976944179389267725783125765531905270281084 53530647938923502258320481743102027030091076257512010526293603425480530793894048 06010349906377258512627703763269560031387383537637047573681045756752587784286013 11739137371929190311003289449019673792073774646228778831153302081767828584676226 41210486725897063409983154351245709948287799837604352486193041312842365463345251 50791894345118692744772645229654852444173423116791998530423525053978350819763186 97280166914170362944463628408140853018113064666796872915731593593038534584799750 73323443196515772052672723565499198843880755550736285243547759838910279446254813 37966599797907734576457127573954993250399331670515523978786456906894713895899259 04337782970985077809511657669052193048193085778789077293251489855112763928820633 95966612370403875876988011431266744109613708115173599934024274447895164285261317 02644348176647658945752347872949356748639200031843776146957152345044237349808499
