Hi, Dieter:

66 627 445 592 888 887  /  21 208 174 623 389 167

...which indeed agrees in 34 significant digits. ;-)

You're using 34 digits (17-digit numerator and 17-digit denominator) to get 34 digits of Pi. Quite unremarkable (unlike 355/113, which gets almost 8 significant digits using just 6).

Regards.
V.
