A program that repeatedly searches for the first occurence as a string of the position in Pi of the previous string until the that process would loop.
There are two subprograms:
-
singleNum follows this pattern using a user-given start number.
-
allNums brute-force-checks all integer numbers (up to 1 000 000 which takes ~1–2 hours to reach) trying to find the most loop-resistant number.
