Crazy Mathematicians!

What mathematicians!  In the classroom challenge, five students soared in memorizing the first several (actually more) digits of pi.  In one night, these students memorized more than twenty digits of the irrational number.  Fourth place memorized 24 digits.  Third place memorized 30 digits.  Second place memorized 34 digits, while two students tied for first place memorizing and astonishing 105 digits in the correct order!  Simply AMAZING!
