First of all 'pi' is spelled as 'pi' . NOT 'pie' ; that is the meat pie of apple pie that you eat.

'pi' is the small case classical Greek letter 'p' and mean 'proportion'.

It is the proportional constant between a circles diameter and circumference.

'pi' is an IRRATIONAL number.

Casually this means, that the decimal digits go to infinity, and the digits are NOT in a any regular order. .

More formally 'irrational' means that you cannot form an exact ratio from it's decimal digits.

pi= 3.14 , 3.1416, 3.14592654, 22/7 are all approximations of 'pi'.

Super . Duper Computers have calculated 'pi' to billions of places and still going. !!!!!
