In what would appear to be at first a simple mathematical function, the division of a circle's circumference by its diameter, has fascinated scientists, mathematicians and laymen for thousands of years. Derived from the ratio of a circles diameter to its circumference (d divided by c = pi).
This number, 3.1415 and of to infinity, has served as something of a Mount Everest for computer programmers and mathematicians. What is the attraction to this number? Perhaps the fact that a circle is probably the most perfect and simple form known to man. And lying at the heart of it is a specific, unchanging number that also manages to appear in functions of geometry, statistics, and biology, everywhere. It keeps popping its head up, reminding us that it is there and defying us to understand why. Very much like the universe itself, the more technologically advanced we become and as our picture of pi grows larger, the more its mysteries grow. |

QUOTE(Trip like I do @ Nov 26, 2009, 11:50 AM)  Definitely Mr. Yann and some Canadian jumpers have specific sense of humor. Btw, have anybody noted a funny coincidence: the word Pi read reversely gives IP=Identification Protocol. How funny is not it? It is in frames of logic of Mr. Yakkoo (hope kids you understand who is Mr. Yahhoo): Animaniacs Einstein's "relativity theory - the true story" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqodA_xRbI8 it a nice Brainametish joke.
