Happ Pi Day!

[DunEdinRanger]

Yes, today is March 14 and that means it is Pi Day!

While some of you may think of this as rather "irrational" and others are still wondering how can it be that Pi R Squared when Pie are round, and yet others may have joined the Pi Rho fraternity, today is a day to celebrate that number that gives us the circumference and area of circles and spheres.

I thought Pi day only happened once, on March 14 1592

But - Happy Anniversary of Pi day even if true!!

(Geek moment...)
Always makes me think of The Simpsons episode:

Teacher: So y = r cubed over 3. And if you determine the rate of change in this curve correctly, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
[The class laughs except for Bart who appears confused.]
Teacher: Don't you get it, Bart? Derivative dy = 3 r squared dr over 3, or r squared dr, or r dr r.

Don't think about volume. Because Pi R Cubed then.

That's right - in order to get the volume of a round pie you have to use pi r cubed.

It's pi day every day, in Nick's house.
