HAPPY INTERNATIONAL PI DAY!

Every year on March 14th, Pi Day is celebrated around the world. Pi Day is observed on the 14th of March (3.14 in some dating formats). This is because 3.14 are the first three significant figures of Pi (π).

Pi Day was founded by a physicist named Larry Shaw in 1988 and mathematicians have observed the holiday ever since.

Happy Pi Day!
