Moorglade:
I do not have the digital camera.But it is simple to visualize.As a matter of fact you got the description already what I did.
The problem is that why the values calculated with this experimental technique did not show compatiable numbers for the values?
I was at the KEYOTO LAUREATE SYMPOSIUM,where I met the famous Mathemnatician "GROMOV" who had been awarded the prize for introducing the new geometrical solution to maths.He was intriqued and first guesses the circle drawn might not be exact circle.But when I described the differences in the values are much larger than if they could have small differences in precisions,he said he will think!
Just try by taking a circular bottom of any can or disk,and using a pencil start drawing all around it untill the starting point meets from the movement of pencil when curves meet completing a circle.Remove the Can.Put the string at starting point fixed and go around till the string completes the circle drawn and meets the starting point from otherside.This is the circumference.Then open the string and it is straight string.The length is equal to circumference.
But why the values so different fro available data?
