Celebrating Pi day
« on: March 14, 2012, 03:32:52 AM »
March 14 is Pi Day.
Pi Day celebrates the Mathematical Constant Pi.
Pi Day is celebrated on March 14 since the day is denoted as 3/14 in the month-day format.

We all know that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is a constant in any circle and can be approximated to 3.14 and hence the celebration. The Greek Mathematician Archimedes first approximated Pi as roughly 3.14. However, the fraction 22/7 has been found to be a closer approximation of Pi than 3.14. Thus many scientists choose to celebrate Pi Day on July 22. Historically, the first Pi Day was held at a San Francisco Science Museum in 1988.

The Pi minute is also celebrated and occurs twice on each Pi Day. This stems from a more accurate value of Pi being determined to be 3.1415926... Thus on March 14 at 1:59:26 a.m. and 1:59:26 p.m. we have the Pi Day's minutes and seconds occurring.
