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.

A circle can always be squared!

the value pi to be an irrational number approximately equal to 3.1415926535897932384626433832795.

And that one of the many ways to approximate the value of p is to construct a polygon of an infinite number of sides and then to sum the lengths of its sides then divide that sum by the straight line distance crossing the polygon through its center.

By Maclaurin’s series I can see that arctan x = (x - x^3/3 + x^5/5 – x^7/7+…). So for p /4 = arctan 1, and, p = 4(1 - 1/3 + 1/5 – 1/7+…). And this leads to a purely algebraic reference for p .

While, the ratio of the diameter of a circle of radius 1 to its circumference, leads to a purely geometric reference to p .

The largest measured circle for Creative Pi is the Earth's Orbit.

A diameter of 116 days. Each day is 23 hours 59 minutes 58 and 1/2 seconds by Creative Pi calculations with a solar year of 365.2422 days long as a reference.

Each solar year of Creative Pi would be 365.2478... days and consisting of days 24 hours long.

The Creative Pi solar year falls between the Mean Siderial Year and the Mean Solar Year. It is totally possible for a Creative Pi Solar Year to work extremely accurately.

Of course Tradition Pi has no measured circle to prove itself by.
It is still a mere hypothesis!
It just doesn't compare to Creative Pi at all!

“Space is naturally curved; people were never meant to be boxed in." Jocelyn Eastland, Graduate Architect

Observe the gentle curves of nature. They are based on a mathematical proportion called the Golden Mean. The Golden Mean goes on forever and ever. The whole universe is based on that mathematical proportion . . . your body, the fish, the trees, the galaxy, tornadoes and the flow of wind and water...

Thanks for the comment about Creative Pi! I appreciate it very much!

Thanks again,

Also I have suggested that in an appropriate test be applied on a field.
a 360 ft circle and a 114 and 1/3 ft diameter.

Its alittle bit smaller than the solar system but should still work out right I hope!

Cheers!

Hi again!

Anyone should be able to make public comments at this New Site here.
http://groups.msn.com/CreativePi

I had a group once before that got deleted in an attempt to make Creative Pi far more popular worldwde.

Since reception is now much better and I have added much more math and science to my resume, I have decided to leave a group that arbitrary comments can be built upon and recorded for a long time I hope.

Perhaps you will make use of it and enjoy it also.

Thanks!

PJS, I believe your proofs to be invalid, and your theory in err.

Just thought I'd share that.

Also, Trip like I do, why not just concatenate your additional thoughts back into your original post?; it's not like we're going to miss it if we come back.

Interesting approach Petter, able to bring interesting knowledge at further elaborations.
