So it looks like I will have to setup a super computer to calculate pi out
to graham's digit. With the string-list idea I could be able to get up to
24 million before my computer crashes due to out of memory. Also I will
look into the Bailey-Borwein-Plouffe formula, and hope to convert each

And this has nothing to do with pi: knowing some of the hexadecimal
digits of a number does not allow you to find some of the decimal
digits. Base conversion requires
Sorry for the link, indeed I not really read the page.
Indeed, there is one algorithm for the 2 base case :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailey%E2%80%93Borwein%E2%80%93Plouffe_formula.
I don't know any kind of this algorithm for the 10 base case.
I really think that your question will need a
