I am trying to make a program to calculate pi, and I need to add, divide, and do exponents to more than 10 decimal places. So, do any of you how to do that, or how to calculate pi without needing lots of decimal places?

You can only do caclulations with as many numbers as variables can handle, in this case that's something like 10 numbers.

Best way to calc pie with more numbers is using a digit-extraction algorithm, see post above.
