I tried to compile your program as it was, "gcc" asked me if I meant "builtin_printf()" or alike. After I forgot what option for linker so it links to math library...
"__mingw-printf" is for representing large numbers like long double.
So, "__mingw_printf("%.12Lf"...) is for displayin great numbers.

my only intention in posting the string version of Ramanujan was for you to incorporate it into your string-math routines

END SUBIt isn't quite as fast. What I've noticed is my routines tend to take the decimal places out further than necessary for some calculations. My limit&& variable needs to be slightly more than the number of digits to obtain the desired results. Changing that variable has some impact on the final decimal places. My hunch is other methods of calculation use rounding for the final digits, and significant figures in the calculations. Mine does not use either.
I would also need to speed up the square root and division modules a bit. The chunk multiplication, addition, and subtraction are quite fast. That was a nice improvement. Over-all the work is progressing nicely, but I may be leaving my comfort zone when it comes to the mathematical mechanics.
Thanks for all your help on this. It is great for beta-testing my new string routines!

Edit: Found one bug and fixed the issue in the code.
RE: KISS MY ASCII GOOD PI! - Pete - 08-26-2022
Interesting to note that with both string math routines, Treebeard's and mine, pi to 28 digits and 36 digits is incorrect by over 1 on the last digit, and I don't see it as a rounding situation. All other iterations of 10 to 150 appear to be correct, except these. So to correct this, both routines would have to lengthen the value of the square root of 8. I did that by an extra 20-digits, and it fixed the aforementioned discrepancies. Nice; however I wonder what the accepted value of the square root of 8 is for mathematicians who have worked with this formula?
Pete
RE: KISS MY ASCII GOOD PI! - Pete - 08-26-2022
Okay, what I see is a need to have the square root of 8 always returned with more digit, and possibly at least the same number of digits, than the output of pi. To that end, I set that number to 200 digits for the square root calculation and noted all digits of pi 10, 18, 26, 34, 50... up to 150 are now all correct. This same adjustment would have to be applied using the Treebeard string math routines.
Updated code. The grey digits are not part of the comparison. I included them to check what the last significant pi digit should be.

if I set digits% to 100 then your program calculates Pi to about 154 decimals, in your previous version it would only give 51 correct decimals
I think that your precision tracking needs work

In the previous, somewhat different, version, I limited the output to the screen to 51 decimals. So that's about demo presentation, not precision.
I'm now looking into how particular statements slow down calculation loops. I found that setting a variable to the length of a small string, for some weird reason, makes a big noticeable difference in loop speed. Weird. I don't have enough testing yet to conclude why, or what could be used to speed things up. What I do know but don't want to get into now is considering what it would take to do fixed string replacement instead of string concatenation. That definitely increases speed, but it would need to be bullet-proof, meaning it must work in all possible conditions.
