Math nerds likely had already circled today on the calendar, but it's worth noting this year's "Pi Day" is a once-in-a-century occurrence. March 14 -- or 3/14 -- celebrates the mathematical constant of pi. Pi represents the ratio of circumference of a circle divided by its diameter. While it is often abbreviated as 3.14, pi has an infinite number of digits beyond the decimal point, starting with 3.141592653. Pi Day: Circle Your Calendar -- Once-in-a-Century Day Coming This Weekend Last year's Pi Day was one to celebrate since it was 3/14/15, perfectly matching the first numbers past the decimal point of pi. Last year, hardcore math fans even started celebrating the day at exactly 9:26 a.m. and 53 seconds. There's a big reason to celebrate this year too -- math enthusiasts are calling today "Rounded Pi Day." When rounding pi to the ten-thousandth (that's four numbers past the decimal point), it comes out to 3.1416, matching today's date -- March 14, 2016. And if you need any more reason to geek out about March 14, here's one: it's Albert Einstein's 137th birthday. |

Didn't know Einstein was born on March 14th, Pat. More cool trivia. ![]() |
