I often have to generate √2 digits so I created this simple online utility that does it for me. It lets you calculate however many square root of 2 digits you need, starting from any position. It works in the browser and is powered by alien technology from the future.

√2 Digits from 1000 to 1500
This example generates all sqrt(2) digits from the 1000th (inclusive) to the 1500th (exclusive) position. It separates them with the "." character, removes the integer part "1", and prints only the decimal part.

One Millionth Digit of the Square Root of 2
In this example, we set the start to 1,000,000, and generate only 1 value. This gets us the millionth digit of √2 which is equal to 3.

How Does This Sqrt(2) Digits Generator Work?

This square root of 2 digits generator works entirely in your browser and is written in JavaScript. I used Newton's method to calculate the √2 value with an accuracy of one million digits. To avoid repeating this complex calculation, I saved all digits in the sqrt2-digits.js lib. When you open this utility, this lib loads and creates a sqrt2Digits string, where each character of the string is a digit of sqrt(2). It uses the slice(start, start + count) function on the sqrt2Digits string to get count digits starting from the start value (both specified in the options). If you entered a separator in the options, it calls two more functions – split() that creates an array with each digit as a separate element and join() that combines all the elements back into a string, putting the separator value between them.
