Pi Day is celebrated annually on March 14 (Credit: Dennis Wilkinson/ CC-BY-SA-2.O/ Flickr)

A holiday celebrating a math constant may not seem very exciting. But Pi ("π") Day, observed annually in the US on March 14 (3/14), is an exception. The celebrations usually start with math activities centered around pi — the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — widely recognized as 3.14. But they typically end with a slice or two of delicious pie!

    One way to remember the values of pi: count the letters in each word in "May I have a large container of coffee?" May=3 I=1 have=4 a=1 large=5 container=9 of=2 coffee=6 That makes up the digit values of pi: 3.1415926!

                It's because pi is a certain decimal that never ends
