Pi Day!!!



The 14th March (3/14 in American date notation) has over recent years become Pi day because it famously starts with 3.14
New Scientist magazine posted several fascinating facts about Pi and it seemed apropos to share them with you. Did you know..
you can use the stars to calculate Pi
….or the rivers on Earth
Pi has inspired a literary genre where the number of letters in words successively follow the Pi digits
you can calculate Pi with some needles and lined paper
every book ever written is coded within the digits of Pi
