Abstract

This paper studies a well-known π\pi machine illustrated by Fig.(1). It is shown that the π\pi machine can compute digits of π\pi if the ratio of block weights, m2/m1m_2/m_1, satisfies certain conditions, and that dynamics of the π\pi machine is identical to that of Grover's algorithm [1] in quantum computing.
