monkeysrumble Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Yes it's that time of year where everyone can show appreciation for their favorite mathematical constant and the most genius thing to be invented in the culinary arts! To show appreciation of the wonderful pi I want to hear what peoples thoughts on pi/pie are. 1) How many digits of pi have you memorized? 2) How often do you use pi? 3) What is your favorite kind of pie? 4) Do you prefer pie or cake?

Mr Poltroon Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 3.1415 - That's as far as I got. A couple times a week? I like maths, so my sister sometimes teaches me her high school problems and exercises. I cannot recall having ever eaten pie... Actually, that's a lie. I think I ate duck pie at a party not too long ago. But maybe that's not even called pie. Can't make a fair comparison, but I'll go with cake. Quote
Satsuki Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 All I know is that today is White Day. Anyway... 1. 3.14. 2. 0. 3. Meat pie. 4. Cake. Quote
mbl Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 This is the defining moment of the century. The day we will match the first 10 digits of pi in date/time Quote
Nosebleed Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Pi is for scrubs, e master race Never because I quit math. My favorite kind of pie is apple pie. But I'd rather eat a cake. Quote
arakura Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Pi is for scrubs, e master raceNever because I quit math. ._. Hmm. 3.14159(27?) I use it regularly as a math student Hard one, but probably French silk. Pi is way better than cake. Quote
madvanced Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 what do you mean? It's 14/3 The comment I was going to make Quote
Fiddle Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Yay! Fun fact: The Greek letter π is actually pronounced "pee." That doesn't mean that "pie" is wrong in English, though, so don't go around being all elitist to your friends. -_- 1) How many digits of pi have you memorized? 3.1415926, because that's as far as my grade-school calculator will go. 2) How often do you use pi? Whenever I'm running low on fun facts; often. 3) What is your favorite kind of pie? Shepherd's. 4) Do you prefer pie or cake? You are a heathen for asking such an obvious question. Deep Blue 1 Quote
LinovaA Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1. 3.1 ... I round stuff to the nearest tenth. Screw Pi. 2. Never. I study linguistics not mathematics. 3. Pumpkin pie and apple pie. 4. Tut tut. LET THEM EAT CAKE. ......... I prefer pie. Quote
OriginalRen Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1. 3.141592654 2. I use the ex every day with the ladies (+1 of course!) ex (dx) = (ex) dx = ex + 1 I also throw some pies in there...cream pies that is. 3. I like chocolate pie 4. Cake is the best thing ever Quote
GetterEmperor Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 3.1415 Never. Quite dislike math. Apple Pie Pie unless the cake is chocolate. Quote
Eclipsed Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1) How many digits of pi have you memorized? - 3.14 2) How often do you use pi? - A few times a year / whenever encountered in math subjects 3) What is your favorite kind of pie? - Pumpkin pie > Apple Pie > Blueberry Pie 4) Do you prefer pie or cake? - Cake. fk pies. LOL Quote
sub-zer0 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1.3.141592654 2.Haven't had to use that in like forever..... 3. Apple pie..but not too much cinnamon 4.cake only If it is ice cream cake or cheese cake, otherwise I'd stick with pie Quote
Fiddle Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 2. I use the ex every day with the ladies (+1 of course!) ex (dx) = ex + 1 Bro do you even antiderivative. Yeah, (d/dx)ex=ex, so the indefinite integral of ex is also ex + C, that C obviously being a constant, because the derivative of any constant (0 included) is 0. But who's to say that the constant is 1? What makes 1 better than everyone else? You think we 4 peasants aren't cool enough for you? Is -7,260,833 out of the club too? Maybe you got your shizzle mixed up with your chain rule, or should I say, your BANE rule. When you're taking the derivative of a number with an exponent, the derivative of the exponent is MULTIPLIED by the remaining term, not added to. In other words, (d/dx)ex=(1)(ex)=ex, not (d/dx)ex=1+(ex)=ex+1. Of course, for that mistake to happen, you'd have to be making the additional mistake of taking the derivative, not the indefinite integral (and thus, in this case, antiderivative) of ex, which clearly goes against the ∫ that you posted in image form. L2charactermap 3. I like chocolate pie Chocolate pie is awesome! LinovaA 1 Quote
Mr Poltroon Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I really wish I could understand the complicated math shenanigans... Quote
Flutterz Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1) 3.1415926 2) Sometimes, mostly for trig 3) Cinnamon apple pie 4) Chocolate cake master race Quote

Eclipsed Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Basically only the first line "Yeah, (x)ex=ex, so the indefinite integral of ex is also ex + C, that C obviously being a constant, because the derivative of any constant (0 included) is 0." is what you need to know and the rest of the wall of text Fiddle wrote is nonsense filler material xD Fiddle-sensei pls Quote

Deep Blue Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1)3.141592 2)Never 3)Apple pie 4)depends but usually pie Yay! Fun fact: The Greek letter π is actually pronounced "pee." That doesn't mean that "pie" is wrong in English, though, so don't go around being all elitist to your friends. -_- 1) How many digits of pi have you memorized? 3.1415926, because that's as far as my grade-school calculator will go. 2) How often do you use pi?

Actually is not pronounced "Pee" either, just "pi" as one would read in japanese for example or spanish, "pee" would sound something like "pii" Quote
Kimossab Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1) How many digits of pi have you memorized? 3.141592 (I fell bad for knowing more than 3.14 ... ) 2) How often do you use pi? Uhm... 5 days per week at least 3) What is your favorite kind of pie? Well, can't really explain and doubt most of you would know what I mean, but it's some sort of egg pie made by almost the same thing as "pasteis de nata", a famous pastry in portugal. That's just delicious. 4) Do you prefer pie or cake? Cake of course, nothing beats cake. Actually is not pronounced "Pee" either, just "pi" as one would read in japanese for example or spanish, "pee" would sound something like "pii" Or portuguese, but with the english accent it would be read "pee". But as you said, in spanish/portuguese it's read as "pi", but in other places it would be different Quote
