   Happy π day! Here’s a color-coded representation of the first 10,000 digits of π. Read it left-to-right and top-to-bottom. #PiDay

     And here are the actual first 10,000 digits of π, color coded using the same scheme as the previous tweet. #PiDay

     @mcnees I get your point but as a optically challenged (severely colour blind) person, who also once taught mathematics to a high level, I'll stick with pi to 17 if that's ok?

     Colors aren't the most accessible way of presenting data, so here is an alternate representation of the first 10,000 digits of π as a grid of symbols. #PiDay

     @mcnees You should try displaying in different widths until the pattern emerges.

     Sorry, I forgot to say that the first one is a Magic Eye image.
