All of you have a happy international Pi day.
Another hour and a half for me..woohoo, pi day is finally here!! :uhh: :tongue: Can't wait til pi+0.01 day
e-day: 27th JanuaryAre there e and i days, too? :tongue2:
3.14 is taken care of by the date. So you celebrate it at 1:59:26(.5) in the morning (or in the afternoon if you don't use a 24-hour clock).The only problem is, how to decide if it's celebrated at 3:14 am or 3:14 pm.
I don't see it as a problem. We can precisely define pi's birth in this scheme, minutes second and everything, can't we ?The only problem is, how to decide if it's celebrated at 3:14 am or 3:14 pm.
I do use a 24-hour clock, but I would have thought we need to pick up 15:9:263.14 is taken care of by the date. So you celebrate it at 1:59:26(.5) in the morning (or in the afternoon if you don't use a 24-hour clock).
And that's why I said that I would rather wait will April 31st. This is strictly a US-centric Pi-day.Oh yes, and there's another issue. In my country, we write the day first, and then the month, so we have no pi day! Which proves that the pi day is a those-who-write-the-month-first-o-centric product. Down with it! :tongue2:
so, what is the accuracy with which you can calculate the circumference of the galaxy, supposing you know it's diameter with a precision equivalent to that of the size of the proton ?thats all I know off the top of my head.
Did you have a pi-digit-listing contest today? :tongue:I know the first 120 digits of pi:
3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706798214808651
whew!
thats all I know off the top of my head.
Did someone actually buy one of these? :rofl:and you can also buy pi day t-shirts for pi^2 dollars ($9.87)
