Pi isn't an invention, it's a definition. It is defined as the ratio of any circle's circumference to it's diameter. If anything, it's a discovery. Euclidean geometry, attributed by Greek mathematician Euclid was the first recorded system used to show Pi as a mathematical constant. Archimedes was a famous ancient Greek mathematician and inventor. He accomplished the computation of pi.

It refers to constant of PROPORTION of circles. Today we have the two equations' C = pi d & A = pi r^(2) pi is an IRRATIONAL number, which means the decimals go to infinity, AND the decimal digits are not in any regular order. Supa=Dupa computers have calculated 'pi' to 50 billion places and still going!!!!! In school, you are probably given pi = 3.14 or 3.1416 or 22/7 , but these are only approximations.
