Pi is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter and is approximately equal to 3.14159. People have been trying to figure out the answer to this question for literally thousands of years. The Great Pyramid is considered evidence that the Ancient Egyptians were aware of Pi. The earliest written approximations of π are found in Egypt and Babylon, dated around 1650 BC.
You must first understand that Pi is considered an irrational number. Being an irrational number, Pi cannot be expressed exactly as a ratio of any two integers. The decimal expansion of Pi cannot come to an end, and it cannot repeat - according to theory.
As of late 2011, Pi has been calculated to over 10 trillion (1013) digits, and so far all the digits from 0 to 9 appear just about as equally often. Interestingly however, the extensive calculations involved have been used to test supercomputers and high-precision multiplication algorithms.
The official answer? No, it does not end. Pi is a circle. A circle goes around and around, there is no end. To get an end point you would need to square it. You cannot square a circle, because then it is a different size and shape.

Why is pi an inrational number?
An irrational number has no end and pi is infinite and has no end, therefore pi is irrational. Note: There are computers that have been computing the number pi for a long time and there has been no end yet. The numbers just keep going on and on and there is no rhyme reason or pattern to it.
Is there an end to the number Pi?
No, pi has no known ending, or any repetitious sequences of numbers for that matter.
What is the last number in pi?
Ther is no last nuber in pi. Pi is a never ending number that continues forever, even after the end of time.
Does pi ever repeat or end?
The decimal digits of Pi never end; they continue infinitely. The digits also will never repeat. These are characteristics of irrational numbers. Rational numbers have decimal fractions that either come to an exact end, or they fall at some point into an infinitely repeating pattern. 1/5 equals .25 exactly, and 1/3 has a repeating decimal fraction of .3333_. So far pi has been calculated out to at least 2.7 trillion decimal places, and since irrational numbers go on for infinitely many decimal places, we are nowhere near the end (and never will be, however hard we try). To keep things in perspective, by the time you reach 6 or 8 decimal places, you have pi to a tolerance good enough for almost any application we could ever imagine using on a practical level. If we ever need more decimal places than 8, we can go to the above calculation where there are a few waiting in the wings.
Why is pi never ending?
Pi never ends because it is an irrational number and that means that it will never end it will go on and on
Why doesn't the number pi ever end?
Because a circle doesn't have any corners or ends.
Does pi equal 3.14?
Pi is ROUNDED to 3.14. Pi really goes on for ever and ever.
What would happen if someone found out the end to pi?
Impossible, Pi has no end.
What is the end of pi?
Pi has no end; it just keeps going and going and going.....
What is the largest expansion of pi?
There is no end to pi.
Where does pi end?
pi never ends
What does pi find?
Pi is the circumference of the circle divided by the diameter of the circle. Every circle, that ever was, is, or ever will be.
Where is the end of pi?
The constant Pi has no end. It is a number that goes on forever and never repeats!
Did they find the end to pi?
In base pi yes, it is 10 in base pi.
How far can pi go?
Pi is infinite and has no end.
Last number in pi?
pi is unsolved and therefore has no end
Does pi end?
Pi has not been proven to end, currently we understand it to go on and on forever with no patterns or repetitions.
