March 14 is a great day for fans of maths. It is celebrated as Pi(π) Day, a day to celebrate the number that many people know very well. The date copies from the first three numbers of Pi(π). March is the third month and the 14th means one and four. Altogether it is 3.14. Pi(π) comes wherever there are circles(圆). Pi has been known for thousands of years and gets its name from a Greek letter, n. The Greeks are believed to be the earliest to use the letter in maths.
