Today, March 14 is Pi Day!

[Fat Man]

As we all know, Pi is the ratio of a circle's diameter to it's circumference.

It is approximately 22/7 but not quite.

22/7 = 3.1428571428571428571428571428571

Here is the value of the number Pi, calculated to 3 decimal places.

3.14

Since March is the 3rd month of the year, and today is the 14th day of the month, then today is officially Pi Day.

Here is Pi calculated to 20 decimal places.

3.14159265358979323846

No need to go any further, but you do get the general idea.

And now, the Pi Song!

This is a parody of the song "Bye Bye Miss American Pie" elaborating on the history of the number pi.

And here is a You Tube link to another Pi Song. This one is really cool!

In the meantime . . . . . . .
