Pi can be estimated to various levels of accuracy:

3.14

3.1416

3.14159

The value pi is a type of number known as an irrational number which simply means it cannot be written as a fraction. Furthermore it is not algebraic which means it is not the root of a non-zero polynomial. Numbers that are not algebraic are known as transcendental numbers. By definition Pi is the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter.

There are an infinite number of possible digits to which pi can be computed: it does not terminate or repeat. To date it has been computed to as many as 10 trillion digits. For ordinary mathematics, using anything more than 10 places would only negligibly improve the accuracy of the calculations (to 10 decimal places, pi is 3.1415926536).
