tornado681 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 3/14 = 3.14 = pi! Today, March 14th, we celebrate the number pi. Without you, we would be unable to relate diameter to circumference of a circle, the radius squared to the area of a circle, and our math solutions would look a lot less "cool" if 'pi' did not exist. Happy Pi Day to all!

Corp000085 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 22/7 isn't exactly pi. It's a very close estimated ratio of pi. who's the dork now?

Corp000085 Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 this day makes me want to find the area under the curve between finite point a and finite point b! YAY!!
