Table of constants with 50 decimal places

(Click here for a for a Postscript version of this page and here for a pdf version)

Here are given the first 50 decimal places of constants that occur frequently in numerical computations (see also [1], [2] and [4] for large tables of constants available on the net). This number of digits should be enough for most practical purposes.
