The earliest signs of the use of Pi was in the designs of the Old Kingdom pyramids in Egypt. Many divide the history of Pi into three periods: The ancient period during which Pi was studied in a geometrical manner, the classical era when Pi was fully developed after the creation of calculus in the 17th century and, most recently, the age of digital computers.
The history of pi dates back to ancient civilizations, such as the Babylonians and Egyptians, who approximated the value of pi. The first accurate calculation of pi was made by the Greek mathematician Archimedes in the 3rd century BC. The symbol for pi was introduced by the Welsh mathematician William Jones in the 18th century, and it has since become one of the most important mathematical constants in mathematics.
