I didn't understand that at all.

Well, it's almost over, soon people will be logging off and in four hours and ten minutes, no more pi.

EDIT: :eekdance: TOTPD

Oh! We always used to celebrate pi day in high school. Pie was had, of course. Except one of the math teachers didn't really like pie, so cake that was decorated like a pie was brought in.

Those were the good old days. I doubt it'd get even an honorable mention at my uni, but then again it's difficult to call as we're on spring break this week.

Here's some pie for all:

Blueberry Pie!

*haump haump* Delicioso! :p

Pi is 300 years old. Maybe we can have a holiday from school because pi is 300.

Close. The square root of the infinite series (6/n^2) starting at 1 is equal to pi. (No, they aren't the same thing. That series above doesn't converge to any value, actually.)

More like, Happy Crocker Day! Man, how do I remember that? I haven't seen that episode in at least a year.

Ooh. We had pie in math class. Like seven or eight different kinds. For like four classes of 10. Was good.

What bothers me about Pi, though, is that it's supposed to represent a ratio, but it's irrational. An irrational number has no component fraction therefore cannot be a ratio... *scratch head*

Woah. That's one heck of a huge coincidence.

There's nothing in the definition of ratio that says it has to be equivalent to a fraction. To quote Wikipedia, "In number and more generally in algebra, a ratio is the linear relationship between two quantities." Pi is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. C and d are both quantities, ergo Pi is a ratio.

What about the square root of -1?

i Day?

That's just ridiculous.

I bet we'll have an i Day, just as soon as Macintosh sponsors it.

Author:  The Zephyr Song [ Thu Mar 16, 2006 1:28 am ]
Post subject: 

No, when Macintosh takes over the world then every day will be iDay.

And the iWorld will be populated with iPeople and the iMLA will finally accept that iNouns must now be capitalized with a lowercase i preceding.

"Hey, iJeremy, I was just wondering if iYou would like to go to the iLibrary with iAshley and iRT and iMe. iYou can bring your iPod, iThey have iListening-Stations there."

anyway...I totally forgot it was pi day until second period. Then I just drew the pi symbol on my hand and forgot about it. I'm gonna make a pi-dye shirt and wear it next Pi Day. Or possibly European Pi Day. Because that's sooner.

Now I just need some contact paper and a tie-dye kit...

sine, sine, cosine, sine! three point one four one five nine! go nerds!

Ah, Pi day. Well, here is a ytmnd to help you practice up for next pi day. Remember, 9 years from two days ago it will truly be Pi day. 3/14/15!

Ugh, I forgot the "starting at 1."

Stupid sequences and series...

When I was in math class a couple years ago, we simply celebrated it at 1:59 and 26 seconds...

Random off-toastpaint sort of thing: You know how I remember pi's approximation? Because of a taling circle creature in Donald in Mathmagic Land. Does anybody remember that cartoon? Man, that was frikkin' awesome.

I really loved that cartoon when I was younger. We watched it on the last day of Geometry last year. Most people thought it was lame, but I still liked it.
