KZread's lossy video compression is blurring this as I cynically expected. Is this ten million _decimal_ digits, or ten million binary digits? Does each pixel from top to bottom, left to right, represent the coefficient b∈{0,1} for each term in π≈b•2ⁿ where n goes from 2 to -10,000,000? Or is this a different encoding?

it is the decimal digits 0-9 represented in binary. 10 million decimal digits I believe

What’s the binary pattern? 8 bits horizontally line by line, 8 bits vertically in horizontal rows (so, 8 bytes across each each 8x8 character square and 320 bytes per 40 character text line), or some other arrangement?

I was assuming this was on a C64 screen when I asked that, so if it’s on something else then my numbers might not make sense.

The bit pattern is horizontal, and the bytes of PI are 0-9 meaning only 4 bits per decimal place
