muck Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 PSS'T ... Azz ... Just make it simple and round Pi to an even three...lots easier that way. Who needs to fool around with silly decimals, especially those ones waaaaay out there...you know, the ones in the hundredths and thousandths and beyond?

wiegie Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Incorrect Az. I'm still not really sure if Sun's number was meant to be pi You're kidding... right? (The only way somebody could think that he didn't mean it to be pi was if that somebody didn't know what pi was to begin with.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazello1313 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Incorrect Az. I'm still not really sure if Sun's number was meant to be pi or if it was meant as a joke. Therefore no need for a correction on my part toward him or for me to say oops for being wrong for posting correct information about pi. Secondly, my response to what pi is was to Wiegie who saw my post to Sun and posted a . So I wasn't sure what he then meant, so I posted what pi was and then found the Wiki link for it. So let me be clear I was not trying to correct Sun for anything. Oh and my info is correct. Gotta read the whole thread kiddo. It was a good effort you hit it far but foul. oh my lord oke, let's recap: 3.14159... a correct approximation of pi, out to several hundred digits. i'm sure anyone (other than you) with more than a 6th grade education immediately recognized it as such. I thought you might be refering to pi with this response. You know 22/7. But then realized the numbers were slightly off as pi would start out- 3.1428571 an incorrect "correction". pi does NOT start out 3.1428571. that is simply wrong. you are obviously operating under the mistaken assumption that pi = 22/7. Divide 22 by 7. Pi- 3.1428571. No? If not I'm going to find my HS math teachers and file a grievance. again, repeating the same error. it's not a big deal, people make mistakes like that all the time. but instead of just recognizing it and saying so, you pull this act. which, of course, causes you to get beat down, again. then you start whining about that. soon you'll be posting about how you're really a great guy in real life, and you can't understand why nobody here gives you a fair shake, woe is me, blah blah blah.

irish Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 You're kidding... right? (The only way somebody could think that he didn't mean it to be pi was if that somebody didn't know what pi was to begin with.) No dead serious. I thought of pi when I first saw it but also thought about Grits. When I divided 22 by 7 in my calculator they weren't the same so I thought his numbers might be off or knowing it wasn't an exact figure that the cheap cal. might be off.

Your dead right. I didn't realize my own error. Therefore I was never completely sure it was or wasn't pi so I never meant it as a diss towards Sun.

irish Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Was that so hard? No the hard part was figuring out that I was in fact wrong. Once Az helped me with that it was relatively easy. Hey Irish What do you get if you divide the cirucmference of a jack-o-lantern by its diameter? Pumpkin Pi! Yeah but what is the value of the Pi? Just for the record, I like Irish...

muck Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 No the hard part was figuring out that I was in fact wrong. Once Az helped me with that it was relatively easy. You were rather emphatic for a guy who was that wrong. Did you used to be an internet stock analyst a few years back? Yeah but what is the value of the Pi? I'd guess that a Pumpkin Pie would cost $10-20 bucks ... In non-financial terms, the value of pi is the same here as it is everywhere else, 7/22.
