In Python: import httplib h=httplib.HTTPConnection("www.hacker.org") h.putrequest("GET","/challenge/misc/toomany/infinite_number.txt") h.putheader("range","bytes=999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999-10000000000000000000000000000000000000000...

And in one line:

# sed -e 's/9/\n/g' pi-file.txt | sort -n | tail -1


(Replace all '9' by newlines and sort numericaly. The tail just shows the last line.)
