Today, March 14, is Pi Day!! I have memorized 26 digits of pi, because on the Monday we come back (this is the first day of Spring Break for me) we are having a contest to see who can memorize the most digits of pi. Happy pi day!!

HAHA. Two years ago in sixth grade, we ate pi in class and had a contest to see who could say the most digits and whoever could would win extra points on their grade. I didn't even bother entering XD
We also saw pretty cool pi site where people wrote songs on the digits of pi. Kinda weird too..

I know sixteen digits. It is really too bad that pi day is not on a school day, or we would've gotten to eat pie! =D

It's used in math, for finding the area/circumference of a circle. It's a ratio of the circle's diameter to it's circumference, but people usually shorten it to just 3.14.

Happy Pi Day to you too? XD

You didn't read the other posts in this topic, I am guessing.

That's what Pi is. Did you know that 11 days ago was Square Root day?
Happy Pi day!

I'm not sure. My math teacher just told me of Square root day in math. 3/3/09. See, the square root of nine, and so on.

No, it's used in math around the world. It was discovered/first calculated about 2,500 years ago by Archimedes of Syracuse and several others in ancient Greece. Pi is the 16th letter of the Greek alphabet $Happy Pi Day!! U003C0$ You can also find your hat size by measuring your head and dividing by pi, then rounding to the nearest 1/8 inch. (Just to let you know :P )

In math class. That was so stupidly funny. To make fun of it we had an addition day. (3/6/09)
