I found the following sentences from a book 'born on a blue day' and I do not understand their meaning.
" The digits were further broken up into 'sentences' of 100 digits each, to make them as easily readable as possible and to minimise the risk that I might misread the numbers and learn some of them incorrectly."
The author was trying to remember the 22,500 digits of PI and his partners tried to help him by print out the numbers onto A4 sheets, 1,000 digits per page and do something more as the above sentenses to help him of which I do not understand.
Does it mean he translate the digits into words?
