See, you really can use math out of school.

Celebrate Pi, a mathematical constant — originally defined as the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter — that is used in many formulas in all areas of mathematics and physics.

Pi is an irrational number, meaning that it cannot be expressed as a common fraction and that the decimal representation never ends and never settles into a permanent repeating pattern. The first three digits, 3.14, correspond with the calendar date of March 14, hence Wednesday is Pi Day 2018!
