    Well before that deplorable Trump this was not an issue.

    Under Obama cakes were nice and round.

    You certainly can't have a locus of points equidistant from a single point.

    Well, for almost all practical purposes we act as if pi was finite. If you take a value of 3.14 for pi you are only off by less than a promille, so much more accurate than most things in life 😉

    Disclaimer I know that Pi is an irrational number and I know that some people know dozens to a thousand numbers of decimals.

    To prove that a circle is round
    And be terribly deep and profound
    One should start at a place
    And walk at a pace
    One would find one would keep going 'round.

    When I was in 9th grade, this kid in my geometry class had memorized pi out to 500 digits.

    And he could give those digits to you if you had about 3.5 minutes to spare.

    Don’t mind her...she’s still upset over the uncovering her obvious “mathematical brilliance” ruse. The proof of which is trivial like her knowledge of the subject.
    Fraud...fake...phony.
