The Power of---------PI ( π )

Finally I've opened my first ever blog - - - The Math World.

In this blog, I've choose the "π" to be my background wall paper.

The reason I've chosen it is because "π" has many interesting properties .








  The easy way to describe "π" is:



ratio of a circle's circumference C to its diameter d ( π = C/d )

T

herefore, we can simply calculate the circumference by using formula:

circumference = π x diameter
Pi is known to be an irrational number it means that the digits never end or repeat in any known way.But calculating the digits of Pi has proven to be an fascination for mathematicians throughout history.


Some spent their lives calculating the digits of Pi, but until computers, less than 1,000 digits had been calculated.


Did you know the first 1000 digit of π?
