Note that this continued fraction is not periodic. Pi or is one of the most important mathematical constants , approximately equal to 3.14159. It represents the ratio of any circle 's circumference to its diameter in Euclidean geometry , which is the same as the ratio of a circle's area to the square of its radius. Many formulas from mathematics, science , and engineering include π. It is an irrational number , which means that its decimal expansion never ends or repeats. Indeed: beyond being irrational , it is a transcendental number , which means that no finite sequence of algebraic operations on integers (powers, roots, sums, etc.) could ever produce it. Throughout the history of mathematics, much effort has been made to determine π more accurately and understand its nature; fascination with the number has even carried over into culture at large.

What is pi ( )? Who first used pi? How do you find its value? What is it for? How many digits is it?
By definition, pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi is always the same number, no matter which circle you use to compute it. For the sake of usefulness people often need to approximate pi. For many purposes you can use 3.14159, which is really pretty good, but if you want a better approximation you can use a computer to get it. Here's pi to many more digits: 3.14159265358979323846. The area of a circle is pi times the square of the length of the radius, or "pi r squared": A = pi*r^2 A very brief history of pi
Pi is a very old number. We know that the Egyptians and the Babylonians knew about the existence of the constant ratio pi, although they didn't know its value nearly as well as we do today. They had figured out that it was a little bigger than 3; the Babylonians had an approximation of 3 1/8 (3.125), and the Egyptians had a somewhat worse approximation of 4*(8/9)^2 (about 3.160484), which is slightly less accurate and much harder to work with. For more, see A History of Pi by Petr Beckman (Dorset Press).

Where is your Birthday in PI?
Enter your "birthday" (e.g., 22069) This document will tell you where in PI your birthday first occurs.. E.G., If you were born Feb 20th 1969 search for: 22069 Note: No spaces... (you can also search for 2201969, but, that is less likely...) For those that dont remember, PI is the big(*) number that begins with three. Thanks to Arthur Bebak (arthur@msm.com) for the idea... * It has been brought to my attention that PI is not really all that "big", per se 4 being given as an example of a number bigger than PI. I could argue that PI is bigger than an infinite number of numbers (-5 for example) but, in truth, that is kinda wimpy and misleading. It turns out that when I was thinking "big" I was thinking of all the space that was used when writing PI down. The stack of papers required to write down PI is much bigger than the stack to write down 1 million. All that said doesn't take away the fact that there was actual confusion regarding the statement of PI being a big number therefore, you should ignore that I called PI the big number that begins with three and instead consider PI to be the really long number that begins with three.

Pi page
Just to say it's wonderful to find the Pi Page still going - as a young(ish) graduate in the early 1990s, the site probably did more than anything else to convince me that Mosaic (ask your grandparents) was useful for something other than downloading porn and spreading maliciously doctored photos worldwide. If there's ever an Internet Lifetime Achievement Award, I'll happily nominate Eve... And another thing - how come nowhere on this page can I find my favourite property of pi, our old friend e^(i*pi)-1? And another thing (part 2) - I just want to point out that I got 13/25 on the Pi Test - and am a qualified mathematician (who admittedly graduated 13 years ago but even so!) And (one last) thing - if the page needs a pompous slogan it should really be "One measures a circle beginning anywhere" (motto of the Fortean Society and all its spin-offs) - it may be meaningless but it sounds very impressive. Which in itself kinda sums up most mathematics.

Your Pi memorization and calculation records aren't up to date. I knew which records you were talking about, but I think that you should add the fact that 1.2411 trillion digits of pi have been calculated and that the Japanese guy has now memorized 60,000. Other than this you're site is great and I love the trivia game, thx.

I've also had the pleasure of working with several films this year, you can hear my music in the short "The Appointment" by Peter Kailyn, as well as the features "Fixing Rhonda" and Wayne Wang's (The Joy Luck Club, Maid in MAnhattan) "The Princess of Nebraska! 2007 also saw a return to live playing for me, with cd releases in LA, NYC, and SF, and my favorite music town, VENTURA, CA! Many thanks to all of you who came out, and to the fabulous musicians all over the country who played with me! This year, I'll be kicking off strong, with upcoming appearances at NAMM, on the webseries "The Way We Were", and with shows nationwide. MYSPACE ! is where you'll find my COMPLETE CALENDER - check it out! A milliion thanks to you, for supporting this music. Hope to see you all in 2008!

In 1996, NERSC Chief Technologist David H. Bailey , together with Canadian mathematicians Peter Borwein and Simon Plouffe, found a new formula for pi. This formula permits one to calculate the n-th binary or hexadecimal digits of pi, without having to calculate any of the preceding n-1 digits. This formula was discovered by a computer, using Bailey's implementation of Ferguson's PSLQ algorithm. More recently (2001), Bailey and colleague Richard Crandall of Reed College have shown that the existence of this new formula has significant implications for the age-old question: Are the digits of pi random?

PI Math Miscellaneous Constants Pi is a name given to the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. That means, for any circle, you can divide the circumference (the distance around the circle) by the diameter and always get exactly the same number. It doesn't matter how big or small the circle is, Pi remains the same. Pi is often written using the symbol and is pronounced "pie", just like the dessert. History Pi web sites Do it yourself Pi The Digits ... Formulas A Brief History of Pi
Ancient civilizations knew that there was a fixed ratio of circumference to diameter that was approximately equal to three. The Greeks refined the process and Archimedes is credited with the first theoretical calculation of Pi. In 1761 Lambert proved that Pi was irrational, that is, that it can't be written as a ratio of integer numbers.
