Hope you had a transcendental Pi Day, which comes around every March 14th (3.14) in celebration of perhaps the most famous and studied number in the history of mathematics.

Actually, Pi Day kicked off officially on 3/14 at 1:59:26 or so today, but who's counting? Apparently, some people are, with the current world record holder for pi memorization sitting at reciting the number to over 42,000 places. Here you can see the previous record holders, plus other astounding feats of memorization in general. Pretty fascinating stuff.

Other interesting pi links include:
(3.) Search pi out to the first 100,000,000 digits to see if a specific number appears. For example, the number 867-5309 (see previous post) shows up starting at position 9,202,591. And 1234567 shows up not too much later at position 9,470,344. My phone number is in there (minus the area code) in the 6 million range.
(1) Play the Pi Trivia Game!
(4) Did Alabama state legislators really try to pass a law to round pi down to 3?

PS.The title of this post contains the just first 400 digits of pi, not counting the 3 at the beginning.

PPS. I would have posted the Pi Day post a little earlier today, but.... well, I forgot.
