Re: Happy Pi Day!!!

And what the hell does 14/3/05 have to do with the number 3.14......

Since there are only 12 months in the year the closest you might get is 31/4, except april only has 30 days.


Silly Americans.

Re: Happy Pi Day!!!

Us americans do everything right.

one thousand=1,000.00; not this retarded period then the comma for the decimal thing.

and also, why do you put the day before the month? I need to know what month we are talking about before you tell me which day we are talking about.

well overseas the have the DD/MM/YY system (D=day M=month Y=year)
in the USA they have MM/DD/YY

but using your reason EC437, the Americans are still wrong. the Europeans would be correct because they use YY/MM/DD


today is 14/03/05, or 03/14/05, or 05/03/14

it gets confusing at times.




BTW if people don't know PI = 3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375 10582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706 79821480865132823066470938446095505822317253594081 28481117450284102701938521105559644622948954930381 96442881097566593344612847564823378678316527120190 91456485669234603486104543266482133936072602491412 73724587006606315588174881520920962829254091715364 36789259036001133053054882046652138414695194151160 94330572703657595919530921861173819326117931051185 48074462379962749567351885752724891227938183011949 12983367336244065664308602139494639522473719070217 98609437027705392171762931767523846748184676694051 32000568127145263560827785771342757789609173637178 72146844090122495343014654958537105079227968925892 35420199561121290219608640344181598136297747713099 60518707211349999998372978049951059731732816096318 59502445945534690830264252230825334468503526193118 81710100031378387528865875332083814206171776691473 03598253490428755468731159562863882353787593751957 78185778053217122680661300192787661119590921642019 89

Re: Happy Pi Day!!!

Happy Pi Day everyone!

Might have to "circulate" the word a-round about this great holiday

Edit: It's also Waclaw Sierpinski's birthday.

The average IQ in most other countries is sufficient to work out if you refer only to the day, you are usually talking about the current month or the month immediately after it.

Also, it is logical sequence to have day, month, year in terms of duration.
