Q: What do you get if you take the sun and divide its circumference by its diameter? . . . . . A: Pi in the Sky! :-D

No, Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to it's diameter. It most certainly isn't 3.14!

to calculate the real PI, you have to rearrange the formula, that calculates the circumference of a cycle. That means: circumference = PI * 2 * radius -> PI = circumference / 2 / radius the measure between circumference and radius of the cycle is the same everytime, and the result of this measure is PI :) Hope i could explain it a bit understandable with my bad english...

The yanks call 14 March Pi Day. Never understood why 14.3 or 14/3 might have any resemblance to pi myself ;-)

They put month then day and often use '.' as the separator ... March 14th = 3.14 Although month.day is more logical and sortable than day.month, they then ruin it by putting the year at the end. I (and many others) do dates as yyyy/mm/dd(with '/' not the ambiguous '.') or (for filenames and sortable columns) as yyyymmdd which is self-consistent. UK Format:
28/02/2010 + 1 = 01/03/2010 (lower as a sort sequence)
US Format:
02/28/2010 + 1 = 03/01/2010
but 12/31/2010 + 1 = 01/01/2011 (lower as a sort sequence)My Format:
2010/02/28 + 1 = 2010/03/01 (higher)
2010/12/31 + 1 = 2011/01/01 (higher)US format and UK format are ambiguous (e.g. 01/11/2010 and 11/01/2010) and are both Mondays. My format is not ambiguous (2010/01/11 and 2010/11/01 are different) unless some perverse person starts using yyyy/dd/mm which is bad news.

How did this entire thread come and go without anyone saying the obvious: Now shut yer pi hole. unbelieveable
My other signature is witty and insightful.
