Comment (by kcrisman):
> I would like to keep the examples without the {{{*100}}}. At least
that's what my students ran into. The other changes you made are certainly
an improvement.
Okay, I was just trying to make it clearer about the significant digits.
Otherwise one could have imagined that digits really means digits, because
it so happens that with `pi`, the number of digits equals the number of
significant digits!
