Pi is only approximately equal to 3.14. There are several ways of defining pi; the first one that most people come across is that it is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. But it can also be defined as the sum of infinite series or to a mathematician, most beautifully, in Euler's equation.

Pi is an irrational number, that is one that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers and so it does not have a terminating or recurrent decimal representation.
