No bug, this is how smath stores numbers.
40 digit numbers are not stored in smath.
Only first 15 digits.
Same is applied with integers too.

There are two questions in there:
1. Why pi is not pi in Smath ?
2. Where all those freaks come from ?

pi is pi, it is defined as 16 digit. no error in pi.
you can say why 14 digits shown instead of 15.
showing less digits is maybe a glitch maybe a bug.
this is not restricted with pi, some other numbers also shown less.

Looks a bug from Windows that decided to round OFF last digit
Your demonstration is convincing however Smath pi is wrong.
World will have ended but Windows freak will survive.
In short, pi Smath is displayed by Windows c/w its bug.
Thanks overlord for sharing this discussion, most appreciated.
Take care ... Jean.

Smath pi is not wrong, just less digits shown.
Two different thing, not limited with Windows too.
