Converting PI digits into text strings

Question

It's kind of interesting that pi's decimal representation never ends and never settles into a permanent repeating pattern. Meaning it's highly possible that pi contains every possible combination of numbers.

This guy calculated 5 trillions 5x(10^12) numbers of pi :D http://www.numberworld.org/misc_runs/pi-5t/details.html

From the internet: "Converted into ASCII text, somewhere in that infinite string of digits is the name of every person you will ever love, the date, time and manner of your death, and the answers to all the great questions of the universe."

Wondering if somebody has already converted and analyzed the resulting string for known sequences of letters (words/sentences)?

Answer 1

Check out this page: http://pi.nersc.gov/.

It allows you to search for both character strings and hexadecimal sequences. Note that this search engine only has indexed the first 4 billion decimals of pi, and uses a formula for arbitrarily positioned binary or hexadecimal digits after those indexed.
