Pi is a big number?

Pi actually is NOT a big number- it's only 3.14 well, there are like 500 more numbers after that, but just use 3.14. LOL.


Are there any theories on whether Pi 3.14 predicted 911 for example like the infinite numbers of pi are in actuallity dates for big things to happen please tell me any thoughts or resources on this?

There are no such theories, at least not by sane people. There is no reason to believe that the digits of pi have anything to do with dates of important events.


Can you have a negative pi?

probobly because pi equals 3.14 and you can make 3.14 negative so yes you can have negative pi


Where does the 3.14 for pi come from?

3.14 is short for pi. Pi can go on forever and ever. It's just a rounded number of pi to make things easier to understand.
