Pi Day and more...
2007-03-15 07:50:00 Well, I am behind schedule but I will start with yesterday's ones 'coz of the wonderful events that were celebrated! I start off with Pi Day, and guys I am not getting into the details of this because maths is not exactly my cup of tea :). I hope U all had fun with numbers!I rather stick to NO Smoking Day. I'm rather glad that along with all those fun events we have days that celebrate important ones too. Smoking has never been something that can cause happiness. And specially when in the long run, it can cause cancer, I guess a better option is to stay away from it. We also had Genius Day celebrated. Everbody admires intelligence and everyone aspires to be intelligent too, so this day was perfect to flaunt your IQ score or just pretend to be intelligent! Hehe, that reminds me of the 1st of April and that's almost here too. Speaking of fun events, we have a big one comimg up - St. Paddy's Day. It's time for all of us to go green and for this, we had Irish American Day yeste...
Happy Pi Day!
2007-03-15 01:10:00 Pi Day and Pi Approximation Day are two unofficial holidays held to celebrate the mathematical constant π (Pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (3/14 in American date format), due to pi being equal to roughly 3.14.Sometimes it is celebrated on March 14 at 1:59 p.m. (commonly known as "Pi Minute"); if Pi is rounded out to five decimal places, it becomes 3.14159, making March 14 at 1:59:26 p.m. being "Pi Second". Pi Approximation Day may be observed on any of several dates, most often July 22 (22/7—in European date format—is a popular approximation of π).March 14 happens to be Albert Einstein's birthday, among others, and it is common to sing "Happy birthday Dear Albert".Some also enjoy celebrating "Pi Approximation Day" which can fall on any of several dates: * March 14: A common approximation for Pi (3.14) * February 27: The Earth is estimated to have traveled 1 radian of its orbit since the New Year * July 22: 22/7 in the majority of date formats, an ancient approximation ...
