Hmmmmm, I can think of a few more productive things to do with my life other than try to beat him...

Tis the ratio of the... circumference to the radius I think.

What is Pi again anyway?
Is it the radius or something of a circle?

Correction, outside of maths exams you don't even need to remember that.
It will not get you laid, it will not make you cool, it will not allow you to buy nice things.
That's the only criteria you need in life

3.14 is all you need

I'm assuming each number is the amount of letters in each word. It's really quite crap.

I don't see how the rhyme works.

Blame... well, me.

I am a maths A-level student and I know it upto 9 d.p. I should know more, but my rhyme only goes up to 6 d.p. and I have to remember the rest...

"How. I wish I could calculate pi"
3 . 1 4 1 5 9 2

I can only remember pi to 3 places...

How these people do it, I have no idea. Besides a photographic memory.

Whatever, it still rounds down to 3.14

pwnd lol!

Wow. I'm learnding.
