p.s. I am remembering the SVG renderer seeming to break down when ASCII file sizes exceed maybe 8MB, and I don't think you can draw a million points with less than 8 bytes per point, like you could express x,y="123,567", but it still would probably end up too big. Yes so on a square grid, a 1000x1000

Do not know where 4 parts per million comes from. With the diameter you give above, the circumference at the equator is about 40074 km and a millionth part of that is about 40 m, as the article stated. If you are using information not in the article for your computation please find a reference for
662:
A megagon has 1 million sides, and with that, if it were drawn to the size of Earth, which is actually 12756.274 km in diameter, each edge length would actually be 51.025096 meters long(so about 50 meters, edge lengths that are 0.0004% of Earth's diameter = 51.025096), the 40 meter edge length
528:
Not that OR is recommended, but I'd support a multi-radius polygon which expresses the prime factorization 1000000 = 2^6 × 5^6, for visual clarity. So really we only need 64 radial rings of 15635 azimuthal sides. But maybe we can squish in 125 local squiggles within each ring for 125 sides?
587:
Here's a second fake hilbert curve for 1 million edges, pixel-level scaled, red 3x3 vertices, and black edges 1 pixel thick. IE11 won't display original resolution (9400x7100 pixels), but FireFox will.
709:
So I got notified, but when I calculated it, I realized that 1 millionth of 40075 km is actually 40.075 m, that's 40 m 2" 24 mm 199 μm 352 nm, so, over 40 m long rather than "about" 40 long.

Nobody's had anything to say about this in many years, but I also think someone should make an SVG with a million vertices (I would do it, but I don't know how to use
Inkscape that well).
31:
764:
659:
Just looked up this page, and later found out that with parts per million, the size means that 1 part per million means 0.0001%, so with 4 parts per million = 0.0004%.
