After tha challenge ended, I was informed that my position was 87th.
Not bad for my first coding challange.
python autopi.py -s /Volumes/SSD/pi-delivery -i 111 -m 5
Where:
- "-s" or "--storage" is the Folder to store 100GB of Pi" (THIS WILL BE UPDATED)
- "-i" or "--index" is the start Index: 1 == first 100B digits
- "-m" or "--mod" is how many terminals will be processing in parallel. So it will increment Index by mod terminals.
