To get the first 100 digits of pi using Typescript, we can use the following algorithm:

Here, we are computing the value of pi using the Gauss-Legendre algorithm. It is an iterative algorithm that generates successively better approximations to pi. In each iteration, the algorithm computes two sequences (a[n] and b[n]), and the value of pi is obtained by dividing the square of the last element of a[n] by the sum of the last elements of a[n] and b[n].
In this implementation, we are considering only the integer part of the digits to avoid rounding errors.
